Ionisation isomerism

Vedclass · Answer

(B) The two possible isomers for the given octahedral complex are $[M(NH_3)_5SO_4]Cl$ and $[M(NH_3)_5Cl]SO_4$. These isomers produce different ions in solution. Isomer $A$ gives a white precipitate with $AgNO_3$ due to the presence of free $Cl^-$ ions,indicating the structure $[M(NH_3)_5SO_4]Cl$. Isomer $B$ gives a white precipitate with $BaCl_2$ due to the presence of free $SO_4^{2-}$ ions,indicating the structure $[M(NH_3)_5Cl]SO_4$. Since the isomers differ in the ions they provide in solution,the type of isomerism exhibited is ionisation isomerism.
