I need help with two compounds that are some kind of isomers, the ones i picked are the optical isomers of the tris-ethylenediamminecobalt(III) chloride. ( these will be cis and trans isomers i believe)   Question: identify the isomerism and illustrate the similarity and difference between them. Then show how the name and how it was derived for one isomer, and describe how the name would be different for the other isomer
