Solution

Q.
An octahedral complex having molecular composition $Co . 5 {NH}_{3} . Cl . {SO}_{4}$ has two isomers A and B. The solution of A gives a white precipitate with ${AgNO}_{3}$ solution and the solution of B gives a white precipitate with ${BaCl}_{2}$ solution. The type of isomerism exhibited by the complex is: [2025]

1 Co-ordinate isomerism

2 Linkage isomerism

3 Ionisation isomerism

4 Geometrical isomerism

Ans.
(3)

$[\underset{(A)}{Co({NH}_{3})_{5}} {SO}_{4}]$ $Cl + {AgNO}_{3} \to$ $[Co {({NH}_{3})}_{5} {SO}_{4}]$ ${NO}_{3} + AgCl (white ppt)$

$[\underset{(B)}{Co {({NH}_{3})}_{5}} Cl]$ ${SO}_{4} + {BaCl}_{2} \to$ $[Co {({NH}_{3})}_{5} {SO}_{4}]$ ${NO}_{3} + {BaSO}_{4} (white ppt)$

(A) and (B) are ionization isomers.
