Which pair of isomers illustrates the concept of ionisation isomers? |
[Cr(SCN)(NH3)5]2+ and [Cr(NCS)(NH3)5]2+ [CoCl(NH3)5]SO4 and [Co(SO4)(NH3)5]Cl cis [PtCl2(NH3)2] and trans [PtCl2(NH3)2] (+) - [Co(en)3]3+ and (-) - [Co(en)3]3+ |
[CoCl(NH3)5]SO4 and [Co(SO4)(NH3)5]Cl |
[CoCl(NH3)5]SO4 and [Co(SO4)(NH3)5]Cl are ionisation isomers as they give different ions in solution. [CoCl(NH3)5]SO4 → [CoCl(NH3)5]2+ + SO42- [Co(SO4)(NH3)5]Cl → [Co(SO4)(NH3)5]+ + Cl- |
