[Co(en)(2)(H(2)O)(2)]^(3+)+en to complex...

`[Co(en)_(2)(H_(2)O)_(2)]^(3+)+en to` complex (X) is :

A

it is a low spin complex

B

it is diamagnetic

C

it show geometrical isomerism

D

(A) & (B)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(D) , complex is `[Co(en)_(3)]^(3+)` , as an is a strong field ligand pairing of electrons will take place. `[Co(en)_(3)]^(3+),Co^(3+):3d^(6)`

Diamagnetic. As it has 3 bindntate symmetrical en ligands so it will not show geometrical isomerism.
