Question
With what neutral molecule is CIO– iso– electronic?
Solution
The term valence isoelectronic is used when these molecular entities have the same number of valence electrons or a similar electron configuration, but may have a different number of atoms or a different bonding.
valence electron of CIO–. is 14= 7+6+1(negtive charge)
valence electron of ClF is 14 =7+7
ClF is isoelectronic with ClO–.
