The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of which pair contains isoelectronic species where the first one is larger in size than the second, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Isoelectronic Species**: Isoelectronic species are atoms or ions that have the same number of electrons. This means they will have similar electronic configurations. 2. **Analyze Each Option**: - **Option A**: Sulfur (S²⁻) and Oxygen (O²⁻) - Sulfur has an atomic number of 16, so in S²⁻, it has 16 + 2 = 18 electrons. - Oxygen has an atomic number of 8, so in O²⁻, it has 8 + 2 = 10 electrons. - **Conclusion**: Not isoelectronic. - **Option B**: Chromium (Cr) and Sulfur (S²⁻) - Chromium has an atomic number of 24, so it has 24 electrons. - Sulfur (S²⁻) has 18 electrons (as calculated above). - **Conclusion**: Not isoelectronic. - **Option C**: Fluorine (F⁻) and Sodium (Na⁺) - Fluorine has an atomic number of 9, so F⁻ has 9 + 1 = 10 electrons. - Sodium has an atomic number of 11, so Na⁺ has 11 - 1 = 10 electrons. - **Conclusion**: Both F⁻ and Na⁺ are isoelectronic with 10 electrons. - **Size Comparison**: Anions (F⁻) are larger than cations (Na⁺) due to electron-electron repulsion. - **Option D**: Nitrogen (N³⁻) and Titanium (Ti³⁺) - Nitrogen has an atomic number of 7, so N³⁻ has 7 + 3 = 10 electrons. - Titanium has an atomic number of 22, so Ti³⁺ has 22 - 3 = 19 electrons. - **Conclusion**: Not isoelectronic. 3. **Final Conclusion**: The only pair that is isoelectronic and where the first species is larger than the second is **Option C: F⁻ and Na⁺**. ### Final Answer: **Option C: Fluorine (F⁻) and Sodium (Na⁺)** ---
