Current Question (ID: 18722)

Question:
$\text{The complex that does not exhibit optical isomerism is:}$ $\text{(en-ethylenediamine)}$
Options:
  • 1. $[\text{Co(en)}_2\text{Cl}_2]^+$
  • 2. $[\text{Co(NH}_3)_3\text{Cl}_3]$
  • 3. $[\text{Co(en)Cl}_2(\text{NH}_3)_2]^+$
  • 4. $[\text{Co(en)}_3]^{3+}$
Solution:
$\text{HINT: } [\text{Co(NH}_3)_3\text{Cl}_3] \text{ doesn't show optical isomerism.}$ $\text{Explanation:}$ $\text{STEP 1: If complex have elements of symmetry then it is optically inactive.}$ $\text{Optical isomerism is exhibited by only those complexes in which elements of symmetry are absent.}$ $\text{STEP 2: Octahedral complexes of the types [M(aa)}_3], [\text{M(aa)X}_2\text{Y}_2], \text{ and } [\text{M(aa)}_2\text{X}_2] \text{ have the absence of elements of symmetry, thus exhibit optical isomerism.}$
