The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given ions are isoelectronic species, we need to find out how many electrons each ion has after accounting for their charge. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the number of electrons in each ion:** - **Na⁺ (Sodium ion):** - Atomic number of Na = 11 - Na⁺ has lost 1 electron: 11 - 1 = 10 electrons. - **Al³⁺ (Aluminum ion):** - Atomic number of Al = 13 - Al³⁺ has lost 3 electrons: 13 - 3 = 10 electrons. - **Mg²⁺ (Magnesium ion):** - Atomic number of Mg = 12 - Mg²⁺ has lost 2 electrons: 12 - 2 = 10 electrons. - **Ca²⁺ (Calcium ion):** - Atomic number of Ca = 20 - Ca²⁺ has lost 2 electrons: 20 - 2 = 18 electrons. 2. **Compare the number of electrons:** - Na⁺ = 10 electrons - Al³⁺ = 10 electrons - Mg²⁺ = 10 electrons - Ca²⁺ = 18 electrons 3. **Identify isoelectronic species:** - Isoelectronic species are those that have the same number of electrons. - From the calculations, Na⁺, Al³⁺, and Mg²⁺ all have 10 electrons, making them isoelectronic. - Ca²⁺ has 18 electrons and is not isoelectronic with the others. 4. **Conclusion:** - The isoelectronic species among the given options are Na⁺, Al³⁺, and Mg²⁺. ### Final Answer: The isoelectronic species are: **a. Na⁺, b. Al³⁺, c. Mg²⁺.**
