In the reaction [CoCI(2)(NH(3))(4)]^(o...

In the reaction
`[CoCI_(2)(NH_(3))_(4)]^(o+)rarr[CoCI_(3)(NH_(3))_(3)]+NH_(3)`, only one
isomer of the complex product is obtained Is the initial complex cis or trans ? .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In the original complex two `CI^(Θ)` ions are present in the trans position so that all four `NH_(3)` molecules are equivalent and replacement of any one of them gives same product
