NEET · Chemistry · STD 11 - 4. Chemical bonding and molecular structure

Which of the following pair of species is not iso-structural?

  1. A \(ICl _{4}^{-}, XeF _{4}\)
  2. B \(ClO _{3}^{-}, CO _{3}^{2-}\)
  3. C \(IBr _{2}^{-}, XeF _{2}\)
  4. D \(BrO _{3}^{-}, XeO _{3}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(ClO _{3}^{-}, CO _{3}^{2-}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Hybridization in \(ClO _{3}^{-1}\) \(:\) \(SP ^{3}\), Hybridization in \(CO _{3}^{-2}\) \(:\) \(SP ^{2}\) \(\therefore\) structure is not the same
