Definitions [3]
Define the term Hydrated isomers.
Isomers in which there is exchange of solvent (water) ligands between coordination and ionization spheres are called hydrate isomers.
Define Distereoisomers.
Two or more coordination compounds which contain the same number and types of atoms, and bonds (i.e., the connectivity between atoms is the same), but which have different spatial arrangements of the atoms are called distereoisomers.
Define the term Co-ordination isomer.
Isomers which show interchange of ligands between cationic and anionic spheres of different metal ions are called co-ordination isomers.
