Match the complexes from List-I with their corresponding type of isomerism from List-II:
List-I (Complex) (A) (B) (C) (D)
List-II (Type of isomerism) (I) Solvate isomerism (II) Linkage isomerism (III) Ionization isomerism (IV) Coordination isomerism
Choose the correct option:
(A)-(I), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(II)
(A)-(I), (B)-(IV), (C)-(III), (D)-(II)
(A)-(II), (B)-(IV), (C)-(III), (D)-(I)
(A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)
Based on the types of isomerism in coordination compounds: (A) contains the ambidentate ligand , which can bind to the central metal atom through either nitrogen or oxygen. This leads to linkage isomerism . (A II) (B) can exchange its counter ion () with a ligand () to form a different complex ion, . This is a characteristic of ionization isomerism . (B III) (C) consists of both complex cationic and complex anionic entities. The interchange of ligands between the two metal ions gives rise to coordination isomerism . (C IV) (D) involves water as a solvent molecule that can act as a ligand directly bonded to the metal ion or exist as free solvent molecules in the crystal lattice, exhibiting solvate (hydrate) isomerism . (D I)
Therefore, the correct match is (A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I).
