JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2018 (Offline) - No. 13)

Consider the following reaction and statements:
[Co(NH3)4Br2]+ + Br- $$\to$$ [Co(NH3)3Br3] + NH3
(I) Two isomers are produced if the reactant complex ion is a cis-isomer
(II) Two isomers are produced if the reactant complex ion is a trans-isomer
(III) Only one isomer is produced if the reactant complex ion is a trans-isomer
(IV) Only one isomer is produced if the reactant complex ion is a cis – isomer
The correct statements are
(II) and (IV)
(I) and (II)
(I) and (III)
(III) and (IV)

Maelezo

When reactant is cis isomer then following reaction takes place.

JEE Main 2018 (Offline) Chemistry - Coordination Compounds Question 255 English Explanation 1
So, if reactant is cis - isomer then two isomers are produced.

When reactant is trans isomer then following reaction takes place.

JEE Main 2018 (Offline) Chemistry - Coordination Compounds Question 255 English Explanation 2

So, if the reactant is trans isomer then only one isomer is produced.
