Vedclass · Answer

(C) Optical activity is exhibited by coordination complexes that lack a plane of symmetry or center of inversion (i.e.,they are chiral).$1$. $Trans-[Co(NH_3)_4Cl_2]^+$ has a plane of symmetry and is achiral.$2$. $[Cr(H_2O)_6]^{3+}$ is a symmetric octahedral complex and is achiral.$3$. $Cis-[Co(NH_3)_2(en)_2]^{3+}$ lacks a plane of symmetry and is chiral,thus it exhibits optical activity.$4$. $Trans-[Co(NH_3)_2(en)_2]^{3+}$ has a plane of symmetry and is achiral.Therefore,the correct option is $C$.

Which of the following will exhibit optical activity?
