Which of the following complexes exists as pair of enantiomers?
-
Solution
A co-ordination complex compound of cobalt has the molecular formula containing five ammonia molecules, one nitro group and two chlorine atoms for one cobalt atom. One mole of this compound produces three mole ions in an aqueous solution. On reacting this solution with excess of AgNO3 solution, we get two moles of AgCl precipitate. The ionic formula for this complex would be
-
Solution
As it forms two moles of silver chloride thus it has two moles of ionisable Cl.
Facial and meridional isomerism will be exhibited by
-
Solution
Octahedral complexes of the type [MA3B3] like[Co(NH3)3Cl3] exhibit fac-mer isomerism.
