The type of isomerism shown by the complex is:

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

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

is an octahedral complex of type where is a bidentate ligand. It exists in two forms:Cis-isomer: Where the two ligands are adjacent. It is optically active.Trans-isomer: Where the two ligands are opposite (). It is optically inactive.Since it has cis and trans forms, it shows geometrical isomerism.
