                    Among    die    following    groupings   which represents    the    collection    of   isoelectronic species?

    A)                                                                                                                                                                                         \[NO,\,C{{N}^{-}},\,{{N}_{2}},\,O_{2}^{-}\]                                         

    B)                 \[N{{O}^{+}},\,C_{2}^{2-},\,O_{2}^{-},\,CO\]     

    C)                 \[{{N}_{2}},\,C_{2}^{2-},\,CO,\,NO\]                                      

    D)                 \[CO,\,N{{O}^{+}},\,C{{N}^{-}},\,C_{2}^{2-}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    Species having equal number of electrons are known as isoelectronic species.                 In CO number of      In \[N{{O}^{+}}\] number of                 electrons                  electrons                 = 6 + 8 = 14            =7 + 8 - 1 = 14                 In CN- number of    In \[C_{2}^{2-}\] number of                 electrons                     electrons                 = 6 + 7 + 1 = 14           =12 + 2 = 14                 Hence, all have 14 electrons so, they are isoelectronic species.
