The phenomenon of optical activity will be shown by:

A

(a)

B

(b)

C

(c)

D

(d)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Optical isomerism in octahedral complex
(i) One bidented ligands=optical isomerism (show)
(ii)

(iii) Three Bidented ligands=always show optical isomerism `[M(en)A_2AB]` has one bidented ligand, thus it shows optical isomerism
