Solution

The correct option is A Cis-diammine di carbonato cobalt(III) ion
Trans complexes do not show optical isomerism. Therefore, options A and C are not correct. In option D, glycinato-ligand is bidentate with both ends comprising of different elements bonding with the central Pt atom thus, cannot show optical isomerism.
