NEET Chemistry Isomerism in Complexes MCQ Question
Consider a coordination compound diagram where the central metal is surrounded by six ligands, forming an octahedral complex. Which type of isomerism can arise due to different spatial arrangements of these ligands?

Geometrical isomerism
Linkage isomerism
Ionisation isomerism
Solvate isomerism
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
In octahedral complexes, geometrical isomerism arises when ligands can occupy different positions around the central metal, affecting their spatial arrangement.
