Verified by Experts

Coordination compounds exhibit stereo isomerism and structure isomerism
Two types of stereoisomerism and their examples are as follows

Four types of structure isomerism are as follows:
(i) Linkage isomerism `[Co(NH_(3))_(5)NO_(2)]Cl_(2) and [Co(NH_(3))_(5)ONO]Cl_(2)`
(ii) Coordination isomerism `[Co(NH_(3))_(6)] [Cr(CN)_(6)] and [Cr(NH_(3))_(6)] [Co(CN)_(6)]`
(iii) Isonisation isomerism `[Co(NH_(3))_(5)SO_(4)]` Br and `[Co(NH_(3))_(5)Br]SO_(4)`
(iv) Solvete or hydrate isomerism `[Cr(H_(2)O)_(6)]Cl_(2) and [Cr(H_(2)O)_(5)Cl]Cl.H_(2)O`
