Which of the following ions is not isoelectronic with the other three ?

A

`CO_3^(2-)`

B

`NO_3^-`

C

`SO_3^(2-)`

D

`BO_3^(3-)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Isoelectronic ions have the same electron configurations and therefore the same number of electrons .The atomic number of B.C.N.O. and S are 5,6,7,8 and 16 respectively. The number of electrons in `SO_3^(2-)` is 42, in other ions, 32.
