The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given complexes can exhibit optical isomerism, we need to analyze each complex based on its structure and symmetry. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Optical Isomerism**: - Optical isomerism occurs in compounds that can rotate plane-polarized light. These compounds are chiral and do not have a plane of symmetry. 2. **Analyzing Complex (i) `[Cr(gly)_3]^0`**: - Glycine (gly) acts as a bidentate ligand, meaning it coordinates to the chromium ion at two sites. - The structure of `[Cr(gly)_3]` will be octahedral with three bidentate ligands. - This complex can exist in two non-superimposable mirror images (dextrorotatory and levorotatory forms). - **Conclusion**: This complex exhibits optical isomerism. 3. **Analyzing Complex (ii) `[CoBr_(2)Cl_(2)(SCN)_(2)]^(3-)`**: - This complex has six monodentate ligands (2 Br, 2 Cl, and 2 SCN). - The arrangement of these ligands can lead to a symmetrical octahedral structure. - Since it has a plane of symmetry, it cannot exist as chiral. - **Conclusion**: This complex does not exhibit optical isomerism. 4. **Analyzing Complex (iii) `[Co(en)_(3)]^(3+)`**: - Ethylenediamine (en) is also a bidentate ligand. - The complex consists of three bidentate ligands, resulting in an octahedral geometry. - Similar to the first complex, this can also exist in two non-superimposable mirror images. - **Conclusion**: This complex exhibits optical isomerism. 5. **Analyzing Complex (iv) `Na[PtBrCl(NO_(2))(NH_(3))]`**: - This complex has four different ligands (Br, Cl, NO2, NH3) and is square planar. - A square planar complex can have a plane of symmetry, which means it is not chiral. - **Conclusion**: This complex does not exhibit optical isomerism. ### Final Answer: The complexes that exhibit optical isomerism are: - (i) `[Cr(gly)_3]^0` - (iii) `[Co(en)_(3)]^(3+)`
