Which of the following pairs of compounds is isomorphous?

  1. A \(\mathrm{NaCl}, \mathrm{KCl}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{NaF}, \mathrm{NaNO}_3\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{CaCl}_2, \mathrm{NaNO}_3\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{CaCO}_3, \mathrm{NaNO}_3\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\mathrm{CaCO}_3, \mathrm{NaNO}_3\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Two or more substances having the same crystal structure called isomorphous.

They shows the same atomic ratio (Iso- Same, Morphous Form). Eg- NaF and MgO (1:1), NaNO3 and \(\mathrm{CaCO} 3\) (1:1:3) \(\mathrm{NaCl}\) and \(\mathrm{KCl}\) have almost all the properties identical but the crystal structures are different.
