The correct Answer is:
To determine the total number of space isomers for the given coordination compounds, we will analyze each compound step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Compound I - `[Ma_(3)b_(2)c]^(n+-)` 1. **Identify the Ligands**: The compound has 3 ligands of type 'a', 2 ligands of type 'b', and 1 ligand of type 'c'. 2. **Possible Isomers**: - The arrangement of the 'a' ligands can be either in a cis or trans configuration relative to the other ligands. - The 'b' and 'c' ligands can also be arranged in different orientations. 3. **Count the Isomers**: - For the arrangement of 'a' ligands, we can have configurations like: - All 'a' ligands together (cis). - One 'a' ligand opposite to the others (trans). - This results in 3 distinct arrangements for the 'a' ligands. 4. **Total Isomers**: After considering the arrangements of 'b' and 'c', we find that there are **3 space isomers** for this compound. ### Step 2: Analyze Compound II - `[M(AB)_(3)]^(n+-)` 1. **Identify the Ligands**: Here, 'AB' is a bidentate ligand, meaning it can bind to the metal at two sites. 2. **Possible Isomers**: - Since there are three bidentate ligands, the arrangement can lead to different spatial orientations. - The ligands can be arranged in a way that some are cis and some are trans. 3. **Count the Isomers**: - Each bidentate ligand can create two different orientations (cis and trans). - This leads to a total of **4 space isomers** (considering optical activity as well). ### Step 3: Analyze Compound III - `[Ma_(2)b_(2)c_(2)]^(n+-)` 1. **Identify the Ligands**: This compound has 2 ligands of type 'a', 2 ligands of type 'b', and 2 ligands of type 'c'. 2. **Possible Isomers**: - The arrangement of 'a', 'b', and 'c' ligands can lead to various spatial configurations. - The ligands can be arranged in cis and trans forms. 3. **Count the Isomers**: - For this compound, we can have multiple configurations leading to a total of **6 space isomers**. ### Final Summary of Isomers: - For Compound I: 3 space isomers - For Compound II: 4 space isomers - For Compound III: 6 space isomers ### Conclusion: The correct code regarding the total number of space isomers for the compounds is **3, 4, 6**. ---
