For each of the following coordination compounds, state whether the given description about its magnetic nature and type of isomerism is correct.
Select the correct option(s).
Options:(select one or more)
Answer:
A, B, C
Solution:
A. [Cr(NH₃)₄Cl₂]Cl: Cr³⁺ () is paramagnetic. Square planar or octahedral complexes with two identical ligands can exhibit cis-trans isomerism. This is an octahedral complex. Correct.
B. [Ti(H₂O)₅Cl]NO₃: Ti³⁺ () is paramagnetic. Ionisation isomerism involves exchange of an ion inside and outside the coordination sphere. Correct.
C. [Pt(en)(NH₃)Cl]NO₃: Pt²⁺ () in square planar complexes is diamagnetic. Ionisation isomerism is possible. Correct.
D. [Co(NH₃)₄(NO₃)₂]NO₃: Co³⁺ () is diamagnetic (low spin). Exhibits cis-trans isomerism. Incorrect.
