Which of the following does not show optical isomerism? (en= ethylenediamine)

A

`[Co(en)_(3)]^(3+)`

B

`[Co(en)_(2)Cl_(2)]^(+)`

C

`[Co(NH_(3))_(3)Cl_(3)]^(0)`

D

`[Co(en)Cl_(2)(NH_(3))_(2)]^(+)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

As complex of the type `[MA_(3)B_(3)]` can show geometrical isomerism knowa as facmer isomerism and not optical isomerism . So here `[Co(NH_(3))_(3)Cl_(3)]^(0)` can not show optical isomerism.
