An isomerr of the complex CoBrCl_(2)(en)_(2)(H_(2)O), on reaction with concentrated H_(2)SO_(4) (dehydrating agent), suffers no loss in weight and on reaction with AgNO_(3) solution it gives only white precipitate, which is soluble in NH_(3) solution. Q. The incorrect statement about complex is:

Answer»

It can show geometrical isomerism
cis isomer is OPTICALLY active
Trans isomer is optically active
it can exhibit solvate isomerism

Solution :`[CoBr(en)_(2)(H_(2)O)]Cl_(2)`: Its trans isomer is optically INACTIVE.
