Question:

The complex [Cr(NH3)5Br]Cl and [Cr(NH3)5Cl]Br can show which of the following?

Options:

Linkage isomerism

Ionisation isomerism

Hydrate isomerism

Co-ordination isomerism

Correct Answer:

Ionisation isomerism

Explanation:

The complex [Cr(NH3)5Br]Cl and [Cr(NH3)5Cl]Br can show Ionisation isomerism.

[Cr(NH3)5Br]Cl → [Cr(NH3)5Br]+ + Cl

[Cr(NH3)5Cl]Br → [Cr(NH3)5Cl]+ + Br-
