Which of the following octahedral complex does not show geometrical isomerism (`A` and `B` are monodentate ligands) ?

A

`[MA_(4)B_(2)]`

B

`[MA_(5)B]`

C

`[MA_(2)B_(4)]`

D

`[MA_(3)B_(3)]`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Octahedral complex `[MA_(5)B]` does not exhibit geometrrical isomerism because in the same complex
