Arrage the following optical activity possible in
(a) `[Co(H_(2)O)_(2)(NH_(3))_(3)CI]^(o+)`
(b) `[Co(H_(2)O))_(4)CI_(2)]^(o+)]`
(c ) `[Co(NH_(3))_(4)(NO_(2))CI]^(o+)`
(d) `[Co(CN)_(5)NC]^(Θ)` .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a

The complex (a) is of the type `[Ma_(2)b_(3)CI]^(n+-)` and hence shows optical isomerism other types do not show .
