Vedclass · Answer

(B) complex is optically inactive if it possesses a plane of symmetry or a center of inversion.$A$: The complex has a plane of symmetry passing through the central metal atom and the ligands,making it optically inactive.$B$: This is a tris(ethylenediamine)cobalt$(III)$ complex,$[Co(en)_3]^{3+}$,which is chiral and optically active.$C$: This complex lacks a plane of symmetry and is optically active.$D$: The complex $[Co(en)_2(H_2O)(NH_3)]^{3+}$ in the given configuration has a plane of symmetry,making it optically inactive.Thus,$A$ and $D$ are optically inactive.

Which of the following complexes will be optically inactive?
