The common features among the species CN...

The common features among the species `CN^(ѳ)`, CO and `NO^(o+)` are : Bond order three and isoelectronic, Bond order three and weak field ligands, Bond order two and `π` -acceptors, Isoelectronic and weak field ligands

A

bond order threee and isolelectronic

B

bond order three and weak filed ligands

C

bon order two and `pi` acceptors

D

bond order three and `pi` donors

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
For the species having same number of electrons, have same bond order.
Number of electrons for CO = 6 + 8 = 14
Number of electrons for `CN^(-)` = 6 + 7 + 1 = 14 Number of electrons from `NO^(+)` = 7 + 8-1 = 14
Hence, all the given species are iso-electronic and have same bond-order (three) Hence, option (a) is.the correct answer.
