A complex with the composition [MA(3)B]^...

A complex with the composition `[MA_(3)B]^(n+-)` is found to have no geometrical isomers. The possible structure (s) of the complex is (where A and B are monodentate ligands)

A

tetrahedral

B

Square planar

C

Both (a) and (b)

D

cannot be predicted

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`implies`In this square planar complex, only one configuration is possible. Hence, geometrical isomerism is not observed.

`implies`Tetrahedral complexes never show geometrical isomerism.
