QUESTION 8 3-8B Which one of the following statements is true, concerning cis and trans isomers? O a. For an octahedral geometry, cis and trans isomers only occur for the composition MA3B3, where A and B represent different ligands For a square planar geometry, only the composition MA2B2, where A and B represent different ligands, exhibits cis and trans isomers Cis and trans isomers only occur when you have optical activity For an tetrahedral geometry, cis and trans isomers only occur for the composition MA2B2, where A and B represent different ligands b. C. Od.

Explanation / Answer

Ans-B

But this question should be discussed in a Broadway as fallow

a) in octahedral geometry MA4B2, MA4BC....also exhibit geometrical isomersim

b) if we consider mono dentate ligand in square planar complexes MA2B2 only exhibit geometrical isomersim

c) optical activity is concern with optical isomers so it can not relate to a geometrical isomersim

d)tetrahedral complexes cannot show geometrical isomersim
