  2. Transdicyanobis(ethylenediamine)chromium(III)chloride
  3. Tris(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III)bromide
  4. Pentaamminenitrocobalt(III)iodide

A
Pentaamminenitrocobalt(III)iodide
B
Transdicyanobis(ethylenediamine)chromium(III)chloride

Solution
Verified by Toppr


Optical isomers are mirror images that cannot be superimposed on one another. These are known as enantiomers.
Therefore, Tris(ethylenediamine)Cobalt(III)bromide shows optical isomerism as:-
