Vedclass · Answer

(A) The complex $[Cu(en)_2(SCN)_2]$ exhibits linkage isomerism due to the ambidentate ligand $SCN^-$.For the trans-isomer,the possible linkage isomers are:$1$. $[Cu(en)_2(SCN)_2]$ (trans-dithiocyanato)$2$. $[Cu(en)_2(NCS)_2]$ (trans-diisothiocyanato)$3$. $[Cu(en)_2(SCN)(NCS)]$ (trans-thiocyanato-isothiocyanato)These three forms represent distinct linkage isomers. Since the question asks for the number of relatively more stable isomers,and these three linkage isomers are chemically distinct and stable,the total number is $3$.

Total number of relatively more stable isomer$(s)$ possible for octahedral complex $[Cu(en)_2(SCN)_2]$ will be $.........$
