Answer the following questions :
Which neutral molecule would be isoelectronic with `ClO^(-)` ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`ClF` is isoelectronic (same number of electrons) with `ClO^(-)`. Number of electrons in the two compounds is calculated as under:
`ClO^(-) = 17 + 8 + 1 =26`
`ClF=17 + 9 = 26` .
