Structural isomers are the isomers that have the same molecular formula, that differ in the bonding patterns and atomic organization. Structural isomerism is subdivided as Ionization Isomerism, hydrate isomerism and linkage isomerism.
Ionisaton isomers occur because of the formation of different ions in a solution
Ionization isomers are coordination compounds that have 2 different ligands swapped between the inner and the outer coordination spheres. In the special case when one of these ligands is a water molecule, the isomerism is called hydrate isomerism
Linkage isomers are two or more coordination compounds in which the donor atom of at least one of the ligands is different (i.e., the connectivity between atoms is different).
`[Co(NH_(3))_(6)][Cl_(2)NO_(2)` and `[CO(NH_(3))_(4)Cl(NO_(2))Cl` exhibit which type of isomersim ?
