The type of isomerism shown by the complex [CoCl2(en)2]+ is:
Geometrical isomerism
Coordination isomerism
Ionization isomerism
Linkage isomerism
The complex ion represents an octahedral complex of the type , where 'AA' is the symmetrical bidentate ligand ethane-1,2-diamine () and 'a' is the monodentate ligand chloride ().
This specific type of complex exhibits Geometrical Isomerism consisting of two isomers :
Analysis of other options:
Therefore, Geometrical isomerism is the correct answer.
