Vedclass · Answer

(A) The given complexes $[Co(NH_3)_5Cl]SO_4$ and $[Co(NH_3)_5SO_4]Cl$ differ in the counter ion present outside the coordination sphere.In the first complex,the $SO_4^{2-}$ ion is the counter ion,while in the second complex,the $Cl^-$ ion is the counter ion.When these complexes are dissolved in water,they give different ions in the solution.This type of isomerism,where the counter ion is exchanged with a ligand from the coordination sphere,is known as ionisation isomerism.Therefore,the correct option is $A$.

$[Co(NH_3)_5Cl]SO_4$ and $[Co(NH_3)_5SO_4]Cl$ are which type of isomers?
