How many isomers are possible for the following coordination compound ? `[CoCl_2(en)_2]^(+)`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the number of isomers for the coordination compound \([CoCl_2(en)_2]^+\), we will analyze the coordination geometry and the ligands involved. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Coordination Number and Geometry**: - The coordination compound has cobalt (Co) as the central metal ion, with two chloride ions (Cl) and two ethylenediamine (en) ligands. - Ethylenediamine is a bidentate ligand, meaning each en can bind to the metal at two points. Therefore, the coordination number is 6 (2 from Cl and 4 from 2 en ligands). - The geometry of the complex is octahedral. ...
