Question

Why tetrahedral complexes show geometrical isomerism?

Answer 1

Answer:

Tetrahedral complexes do not show geometrical isomerism because the relative positions of unidentate ligands attached to the central atom are same with respect to each other.

Answer 2

Answer:

Tetrahedral complexes do not show geometrical isomerism because the relative positions of the unidentate ligands attached to the central metal atom are the some with respect to each other. ... The degenerate d-orbitals (in a spherical field environment) split into two levels i.e., eg and t2g in the presence of ligands.
