The pair(s) of coordination complexes/ions exhibiting the same kind of isomerism is(are) -

  1. [Cr(NH₃)₅Cl]Cl₂ and [Cr(NH₃)₄Cl₂]Cl
  2. [Co(NH₃)₄Cl₂]⁺ and [Pt(NH₃)₂(H₂O)Cl]⁺
  3. [CoBr₂Cl₂]²⁻ and [PtBr₂Cl₂]²⁻
  4. [Pt(NH₃)₃Cl(N₃O)]Cl and [Pt(NH₃)₃Cl]Br

Correct answer: [Co(NH₃)₄Cl₂]⁺ and [Pt(NH₃)₂(H₂O)Cl]⁺

Solution

Both [Co(NH₃)₄Cl₂]⁺ and [Pt(NH₃)₂(H₂O)Cl]⁺ exhibit geometrical isomerism due to the different spatial arrangements of their ligands around the central metal ion.
