Statement-1: `[Co(en)_(3)]^(3+)` show stereoisomerism.
Statement-2: EAN value of `[Co(en)_(3)]^(3+)` is 36.

A

Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True , Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1.

B

Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True, Statement-2 is NOT a correct explanation for Statement-1.

C

Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False.

D

Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B


It is optically active so it cotains 2 stereoisomers
`[Co(en)_(3)]^(3+)`
EAN`rArr27-3+12=36`
