Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\mathrm{N}^{3-}, \mathrm{Mg}^{2+}, \mathrm{F}^{-}, \mathrm{O}^{2-}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Iso-electronic species Atoms, molecules and ions that have the same electronic configuration are said to be iso-electronic. So, Number of electrons (a)\(\begin{array}{ll}\mathrm{N}^{3-} & =10 \\\mathrm{~F}^{-} & =10 \\\mathrm{O}_2 & =16 \\\mathrm{Ca}^{2+} & =10\end{array}\)…
