    option A is correct

    eduncle-logo-app

    No3- total electrons =7+8+8+8+1=32 Co32- total electrons =6+8+8+8+2=32

    eduncle-logo-app

    These two are isoelectronic because these have same number of electrons

    eduncle-logo-app

    these two are isostructural too as both have trigonal planar structure

    okay thanks sir 😊

    eduncle-logo-app

    but still i have one doubt

    eduncle-logo-app

    yes ask

    eduncle-logo-app

    eduncle-logo-app

    So3 have trigonal planar shape too

    eduncle-logo-app

    carbonate ion has also trigonal planar shape
