The complexes [Co(NH3)6][Cr(CN)6] and [Cr(NH3)6] [Co(CN)6] are the examples of which type if isomerism? [CBSE AIPMT 2011]

A.Geometrical isomersim
B.Linkage isomerism
C.Ionisation isomerism
D.Coordination isomerism✓ Correct
Explanation

The given complexes [Cr(NH3)6] [Co(CN)6] & [Co(NH3)6] [Cr(CN)6] exemplify coordination isomers. Coordination isomerism is seen by compounds in which both cation and the anion are complexes. The isomers differ with each other because of different groups being coordinated to a particular coordination center. In the example both cation and anion are complexes.
