You are trained on data up to October 2023.
[Co(NH3)6][Cr(CN)6] and [Cr(NH3)6][Co(CN)6] are an example of
(1 Ponto)
- Coordination isomerism
- Linkage isomerism
- Hydrate isomerism
- Ligand isomerism
Solution
The compounds [Co(NH3)6][Cr(CN)6] and [Cr(NH3)6][Co(CN)6] are examples of Coordination Isomerism.
Coordination isomerism is a form of isomerism in which the composition of the coordination complex ion varies. This type of isomerism arises when the ligands and the central metal atom interchange their positions within complex ions of the same compound.
In the given compounds, the central metal atom in the complex ion is changing from Co in [Co(NH3)6][Cr(CN)6] to Cr in [Cr(NH3)6][Co(CN)6] and vice versa. Hence, these compounds are examples of coordination isomerism.
