Question
What kind of isomerism exists between \[\ce{[Cr(H2O)6]Cl3}\] (violet) and \[\ce{[Cr(H2O)5Cl]Cl2 . H2O}\] (greyish-green)?
Options
Linkage isomerism
Solvate isomerism
Ionisation isomerism
Coordination isomerism

Solution
Solvate isomerism
Explanation:
This form of isomerism is known as 'hydrate isomerism' in case where water is involved as a solvent. This is similar to ionisation isomerism. Solvate isomers differ by whether or not a solvent molecule is directly bonded to the metal ion or merely present as free solvent molecules in the crystal lattice.

Assertion: Linkage isomerism arises in coordination compounds containing ambidentate ligand.
Reason: Ambidentate ligand has two different donor atoms
CoSO4Cl.5NH3 exists in two isomeric forms ‘A’ and ‘B’. Isomer ‘A’ reacts with AgNO3 to give white precipitate, but does not react with BaCl2. Isomer ‘B’ gives white precipitate with BaCl2 but does not react with AgNO3. Answer the following questions.
