Which of the following is iso-electronic with neon?
(C) Mg
(D) Na
(A) 02-
(B) F-
Answers
Answer: Both (A) O2- and (B) F- are iso-electronic with Ne
The electronic configuration for Ne is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6
Electronic configuration for O is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^4
Electronic configuration for F is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^5
Thus Oxygen requires two electrons to complete a stable octet (fully filled p-orbital) and Fluorine requires one electron to complete a stable octet (fully filled p-orbital) in order to attain the electronic configuration of Ne (Noble gas).
Thus O2- (gain of 2 electrons) and F- (gain of 1 electron) are iso-electronic species with Ne.
Answer:
o2-
Explanation:
just calculate the number of electrons present in each element.
we know neon has 10 electrons.
here o2-has Also 10 electrons.
o has 8 electrons and written that 2 electrons are gained so 8+2=10
you can check other options.
all other will not have 10 electrons.
so your answer is option a o2-
