Chemistry Question on Isomerism in Coordination Compounds

The two optical isomers given below, namely, :

A

enantiomers

B

geometrical isomers

C

diastereomers

D

structural isomers

Answer

diastereomers

Explanation

Solution

(i) Enantiomers are non superimposable mirror images of each other.
(ii) Diastereomers can't be related as non super imposable mirror images of each other.
(iii) Geometrical isomers have atleast one CC.C-C.
(iv) Structural isomers have same molecular formula but different structures,

\because They are not related as super imposable mirror images of each other. \therefore They are diastereomers.
