Question

Of the complexes below, which is the only one to have more than one unique geometrical isomer?
Select one: a. [PtCl2(NH3)2] (square planar) b. [Cu(NH3)4]2+ (square planar) c. [ZnCl2(NH3)2] (tetrahedral) d. [CuCl(NH3)5]2+ (octahedral) Of the complexes below, which is the only one to have more than one unique geometrical isomer?

Explanation / Answer

ANSWER

OPTION (A) IS CORRECT.

[PtCl2(NH3)2] square planar have two geometrical isomer ...cis and trans

b...not give because all four group are same.[ primary need for geometrical isomar is minimum two group differ at one side in planner structure.]

c not give..only two tetrahedra give geometrical which all four group are different..

d This is [Ma5b] type compound which not give geometrical as well as optical..
