    Which of the following complex will show geometrical as well as optical isomerism (en=ethylenediammine)

    A) \[[Pt{{(N{{H}_{3}})}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}]\]    

    B) \[[Pt\left( en \right)C{{l}_{4}}]\]

    C) \[{{[Pt{{(en)}_{3}}]}^{4+}}\]             

    D) \[[Pt{{(en)}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}]\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] \[[Pt\left( en{{)}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}} \right]\] is a complex of the type \[[M{{(AA)}_{2}}{{B}_{2}}]\] which is octahedral. Such compounds exhibit optical and geometrical isomerism both.
