Number of stereoisomers possible for the complexes, $[CrCl_{3} (py)_{3}]$ and $[CrCl_{2} (ox)_{2}]^{3 -}$ are respectively
( $py =$ pyridine, $ox =$ oxalate)

Question

Number of stereoisomers possible for the complexes, [ CrCl 3 ​ ( py ) 3 ​ ] and [ CrCl 2 ​ ( ox ) 2 ​ ] 3 − are respectively ( py = pyridine, ox = oxalate)

TestHub · Accepted Answer

So total stereo isomer = 2 Geometrical isomer = 2 ( 1 cis +1 trans ) Optical isomer = 3 ( 2 optically active +1 optically inactive) Stereoisomer = 3
