Chemistry-Isomerism in Complexes

NEET Chemistry Isomerism in Complexes MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-diagram based-Hard-Class 12

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?

Question diagram
A

Geometrical isomerism

B

Linkage isomerism

C

Ionisation isomerism

D

Solvate isomerism

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

In octahedral complexes, geometrical isomerism arises when ligands can occupy different positions around the central metal, affecting their spatial arrangement.
