Draw all the isomers (geometrical and optical) of:
(i) `[CoCl_(2)(en)_(2)]^(+)`
(ii) `[Co(NH_(3))Cl(en)_(2)]^(2+)`
(iii) `[Co(NH_(3))_(2)Cl_(2)(en)]^(+)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts


(iii) Three geometrical isomers are possible :

Each of these is unsymmetrical and hence will show optical isomerism, i.e., exist in two forms d and l.
