Question

Which of the following will give a pair of enantiomorphs?

(a) [Cr(NH₃)₅] [Co(CN)₆]

(b) [Co(en)₂Cl₂]Cl

(c) [Pt(NH₃)₄][PtCl₆]

(d) [Co(NH₃)₄Cl₂]NO₂ 

(en = NH₂CH₂CH₂NH₂)

Answer 1

Correct option (b) [Co(en)₂Cl₂]Cl

Explanation :

Either a pair of crystals. molecules or compounds that are mirror images of each other but are not identical. and that rotate the plane of polarised light equally. but in opposite directions are called as enantiomorphs.
