Vedclass · Answer

(C) For a square planar complex of the type $[Mabcd]$,where all four ligands are different,the number of geometric isomers is $3$.These isomers are formed by fixing one ligand (e.g.,$a$) and arranging the other three ligands $(b, c, d)$ in different positions relative to it.The three possible arrangements are:$1$. $a$ trans to $b$ (with $c$ trans to $d$)$2$. $a$ trans to $c$ (with $b$ trans to $d$)$3$. $a$ trans to $d$ (with $b$ trans to $c$)Thus,the total number of geometric isomers is $3$.

$B$. $[Co(en)_3]^{3+}$	$II$. Solvate
$C$. $[Co(NH_3)_5NO_2]Cl_2$	$III$. Geometrical
$D$. $[Cr(H_2O)_6]Cl_3$	$IV$. Linkage

The number of possible geometric isomers for a square planar complex $[Mabcd]$ is ............. ($M =$ central metal,$a, b, c, d =$ monodentate ligands).
