Answer» Correct Answer - A
`[Fe(NO_(2))_(3)Cl_(3)]` and `[Fe(ONO)_(3)Cl_(3)]` show linkage isomerism . This type of isomerism is shown by the complexes in which an ambidentate ligand is present. `NO_(2)^(-),SCN^(-),CN^(-)` etc. are ambidentate ligand as each of them contain more than one donor sites.
In the linakge isomerism, at a time only one donor atom of ligand is bonded to metal atom and hence arises linkage isomerism.
