NEET2015ChemistryStructure of AtomActual
Which of the following pairs of iron are isoelectronic and isostructural?
Options
- AC O 3 2 - , S O 3 2 -
- BC l O 3 - , C O 3 2 -
- CS O 3 2 - , N O 3 -
- DC l O 3 - , S O 3 2 -
Correct answer
D. C l O 3 - , S O 3 2 -
Step-by-step solution
Isoelectronic (same no of electrons) C l O 3 - & S O 3 2 - ⇒ 17 + 24 + 1 = 42 and 16 + 24 + 2 = 42 Isostructural (same type of hybridization) C l O 3 - ⇒ H = 1 2 7 + 1 = 4 s p 3 S O 3 2 - ⇒ H = 1 2 6 + 2 = 4 ( s p 3 )
