SATHEE: Co-Ordination Compounds Question 232

Co-Ordination Compounds Question 232

Question: For complex ion/compound formation reactions

(I) $C o^{3 +} (a q) + E D T A^{4 -} \overset{}{\to} P$ (II) $N i^{2 +} (a q) + d m g (e x c e s s) \overset{N H_{4} O H}{\to} Q$ (III) $Z n^{2 +} (a q) + g l y (e x c e s s) \overset{}{\to} R$ (IV) $P t^{4 +} (a q) + e n, (e x c e s s) \overset{}{\to} S$ which of the following complex ion/compound does not exhibit optical activity?

Options:

A) P

B) Q

C) R

D) S

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

$N i^{2 +} (a q)$ with DMG (dimethylglyoxime) form square planar complex which is obtically inactive.

While ${[C o (E D T A)]}^{-}, {[Z n {(g l y)}_{2}]}^{2 +}$ and ${[P t {(e n)}_{3}]}^{4 +}$ are optically active as they do not have P.O.S.
