Question

Which of the following is isoelectronic with CO2 ? (A)  NO2  (B)  NO  (C)  N2O  (D)  N2O4

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Isoelectronic species are those species which have equal number of electrons. Hence, CO2 is isoelectronic with N2O. Number of electron in CO2= 22 Number of electron in N2O = 22

Q. Which of the following is isoelectronic with $C O_{2}$ ?

$N O_{2}$

$NO$

$N_{2} O$

$N_{2} O_{4}$

Isoelectronic species are those species which have equal number of electrons. Hence, $C O_{2}$ is isoelectronic with $N_{2} O$ .
Number of electron in $C O_{2} = 22$
Number of electron in $N_{2} O = 22$
