Solution

The correct options are
A Geometrical isomers
C Optical isomers
D Linkage isomers
The complexes [Cr(NH3)6] [Co(CN)6] and [Co(NH3)6] [Cr(CN)6] are the examples of coordination isomers
Coordination isomerism is shown by compounds in which both cation and the anion are complexes. The isomers differ as a result of different groups being coordinated about a particular coordination center.

Here in this example both cation and anion are complexes.
The complexes [Cr(NH3)6] [Co(CN)6] and [Co(NH3)6] [Cr(CN)6] are not the examples of Geometrical isomers,Optical isomers and Linkage isomers.

Hence options A,B & D are correct.
