  1. A \(NO^+\) is isoelectronic with \(O_2\)
  2. B \(B\) is always covalent in its compounds
  3. C In aqueous solution, the \(Ti^+\) ion is much more stable than \(Ti (III)\)

Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(NO^+\) is isoelectronic with \(O_2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\((a)\, NO^+\, =7+8-1\,=14\,e^-\). \(O_2\, = 16\,e^-\). i.e. not isoelectronic \((b)\) Boron forms only covalent compounds. This is due to its extremely high ionisation energy. \((c)\) Compounds of \(Ti^+\) are much more stable than those of \(Ti^{3+}\). \((d)\, LiAlH_4\) is a…
