To determine the type of isomerism exhibited by the given coordination complexes, we will analyze each complex step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the first complex `[Co(NH₃)₅Cl]SO₄` - This complex consists of a cobalt ion coordinated with five ammonia (NH₃) ligands and one chloride (Cl) ligand, with a sulfate (SO₄) ion outside the coordination sphere. - When dissolved in water, it can produce different ions: `[Co(NH₃)₅Cl]²⁺` and `SO₄²⁻`. - Alternatively, if the sulfate ion were to be coordinated with cobalt, it would produce a different set of ions. - This leads us to conclude that this complex exhibits **ionization isomerism**, as the different ions can be formed upon dissolution. ...
