The correct Answer is:
To determine whether the pair \([Cr(H_2O)_6]Cl_3\) and \([Cr(H_2O)_4Cl_2]Cl \cdot H_2O\) shows ionization isomerism, we need to analyze the compounds and their ionization behavior. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Coordination Compounds**: - The first compound is \([Cr(H_2O)_6]Cl_3\). - The second compound is \([Cr(H_2O)_4Cl_2]Cl \cdot H_2O\). 2. **Understand Ionization Isomerism**: - Ionization isomerism occurs when two or more coordination compounds can produce different ions in solution. This typically involves the presence of different anions or cations that can dissociate from the coordination sphere. 3. **Analyze the First Compound**: - For \([Cr(H_2O)_6]Cl_3\): - When it ionizes, it dissociates into \(Cr^{3+}\) and \(3Cl^-\) ions. - The ions produced are \(Cr^{3+}\) and \(Cl^-\). 4. **Analyze the Second Compound**: - For \([Cr(H_2O)_4Cl_2]Cl \cdot H_2O\): - When it ionizes, it dissociates into \(Cr^{3+}\), \(2Cl^-\), and \(1Cl^-\) (from the water of crystallization). - The ions produced are also \(Cr^{3+}\) and \(Cl^-\). 5. **Compare the Ionization Products**: - In both cases, the ions produced are \(Cr^{3+}\) and \(Cl^-\). - Since both compounds produce the same ions upon ionization, they do not exhibit ionization isomerism. 6. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the statement that the pair \([Cr(H_2O)_6]Cl_3\) and \([Cr(H_2O)_4Cl_2]Cl \cdot H_2O\) shows ionization isomerism is **false**.

coordination compounds often show various types of isomerism. The isomerism can be categorized in two main types (a) structural isomerism (b) stereo or space isomerism Structural isomerism arises due to the difference in structures of coordination-sempounds while stereo or space isomerism arises on account of the different positions and arrangements of ligands (atoms or groups) in space around the metal lonStructural isomerism can be classified in following types (i) tonization isomers- which give different ions in solution, e.g. [CoBr(NH_(3))_(5)]]SO_(4) and [Co(SO_(4))_(5)(NH_(3))_(5)]Br Hydrate isomers which differ in H_(2)O as ligand or as hydration, e.g. [Cr(H_(2)O)_(5)]CI_(2)(H_(2)O)]Cl_(2).H_(2)O[CrCl_(2)(H_(2)O)]CI.2H_(2)O (iii) Linkage isomers, which differ in atom linked to 'metal atom, e.g. [CO(NO_(2))(NH_(3))_(5)]^(2+) and CO(ONO)(NH_(3))_(6)]^(2+) Coordination isomers- which involve interchange of ligands, e.g. [Co(NH_(3))_(6)] [Cr(CN)_(6)] and [Cr(NH_(3))_(6)] [Co(CN)_(6)] (v) Coordination position isomerism-which arises in the bridged complexes due to the difference in the attachment of ligands with the metal atoms QThe compounds [Cr(H_(2)O_(6)]Cl_(3)[Cr(H_(2)O)_(5)CI]Cl_(2).H_(2)O and [Cr(H_(2)O)_(4)Cl_(2)]Cl2H_(2)O exhibit
