Assertion (A): Linkage isomerism arises in coordination compounds containing ambidentate ligand.

Reason (R): Ambidentate ligand has two different donor atoms.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

Assertion and Reason both are true, Reason is correct explanation of Assertion.

Option A (Assertion and Reason both are true, Reason is correct explanation of Assertion) is correct because linkage isomerism arises when an ambidentate ligand coordinates to a metal ion through different donor atoms.
