Which kind of isomerism is exhibited by octahedral `Co(NH_(3))_(4)Br_(2)Cl`?

A

Geometrical and ionization

B

Geometrical and optical

C

Optical and ionization

D

Geometrical only.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`Ni(II)=3d^(8)4s^(0)`
Since the complex is paramagnetic, so the ligands do not induce pairing of d-orbitals and it would involve `sp^(3)` hybridisation forming tetrahedral geometry.

No. of unpaired electron = 2
Geometry : Tetrahedral.
