Question

Which of the following is isoelectronic?

A. $$C{O_2},N{O_2}$$
B. $$NO_2^ - ,C{O_2}$$
C. $$C{N^ - },CO$$  
D. $$S{O_2},C{O_2}$$
Answer :   $$C{N^ - },CO$$
Solution :
$$C{N^ - }$$   and $$CO$$  are isoelectronic because they have equal number of electrons.
In $$C{N^ - }$$   the number of electron $$ = 6 + 7 + 1 = 14$$
In $$CO$$   the number of electrons $$ = 6 + 8 = 14$$
