Question

An octahedral complex with molecular composition M.5NH3.Cl.SO4 has two isomers, A and B. The solution of A gives a white precipitate with AgNO3 solution and the solution of B gives white precipitate with BaCl2 solution .The type of isomerism exhibited by the complex is :

MARKS Content Team · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: (C) Ionisation isomerism. The central metal atom M is in +3 oxidation state and ionisation isomers due to exchange of ligands outside & inside the co-ordination sphere are [M(NH3)_5SO_4][A]Cl→AgNO_3AgCl_((s))↓white ppt [M(N H 3 )_5 Cl] [B] SO_4 → BaCl_2 BaSO_4 _((s)) ↓ white ppt [A] and [B] are ionisation isomers
