Isostructural species are those which have the same shape and hybridization. Among the given species identify the isostructural pairs.
(a) [NF3 and BF3]
(b) [BF–4andNH+4]
(c) [BC13 and BrCl3]
(d) [NH3 and NO–3 ]
The best answer for Isostructural species is those which have the same shape and hybridization.
(b) NF3 is pyramidal whereas BF3 is planar triangular.
BF–4 and NH+4 ions both are tetrahedral.
BC13 is triangular planar whereas BrCl3 is pyramidal.
NH3 is pyramidal whereas N03 is triangular planar.
