प्रश्न
Assertion (A): Trans [CrCl2(ox)2]3− shows optical isomerism.
Reason (R): Optical isomerism is common in octahedral complexes involving didentate ligands.
पर्याय

उत्तर
Assertion (A) is false, but Reason (R) is true.
Explanation:
Optical isomers are mirror images that cannot be superimposed on each other, hence, cis[CrCl2(OX)2]3− is chiral, and trans[CrCl2(OX)2]3− is symmetrical and not optically active.
