Chapter 17, Problem 17.82QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The validation of the given statement that the complex $\text{Fe}{\left(\text{en}\right)}_{\text{3}}{}^{\text{3+}}$ has stereoisomers is to be stated.

Concept introduction: Stereoisomers are the compounds in which spatial arrangement of their atoms is different. Optical isomers rotate the palne polarized light and they are non super imposable mirror image of each other.

To determine: If complex $\text{Fe}{\left(\text{en}\right)}_{\text{3}}{}^{\text{3+}}$ has stereoisomers.
