Given below are two statements:
Statement I: An octahedral homoleptic complex constructed from monodentate ligands does not exhibit stereoisomerism.
Statement II: cis- and trans-platin are heteroleptic complexes of Pd.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
An octahedral homoleptic complex [M(L) 6 ] with monodentate ligands shows no geometrical/optical isomerism. "cis-platin" and "transplatin" are heteroleptic 
complexes 
, not Pd.
