The existence of two different coloured complexes with the composition of is due to:

  1. A
    Ionization isomerism
  2. B
    Linkage isomerism
  3. C
    Geometrical isomerism
  4. D
    Coordination isomerism

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The complex can exist in cis and trans forms. These are geometrical isomers.Cis isomer is violet.Trans isomer is green.The difference in colour is due to the different spatial arrangements of the ligands.
