JEE Main 7 April 2025, Shift 1, Chemistry Q62

Question 62 of 75 in this shift, Chemistry question 12 of 25, Section A.

An octahedral complex having molecular composition Co.5NH3.Cl.SO4\mathrm{Co.5NH_3.Cl.SO_4} has two isomers A and B. The solution of A gives a white precipitate with AgNO3\mathrm{AgNO_3} solution and the solution of B gives white precipitate with BaCl2\mathrm{BaCl_2} solution. The type of isomerism exhibited by the complex is,
