An (mono atomic) ion is called isoelectronic with another element (or ion) when it has the same number of electrons with it. (they are in the same period or it is the preceeding noble gas).
Examples:
- Na+ and Mg2+ are both isoelectronic with Ne (element) and with each other. Even Al3+ is isoelectronic with them all: They are all surrounded with 10 electrons, hence they have the same 'noble gas' configuration.
- S2- and Cl- are isoelectronic with Ar (and with eacht other): all with 18 electrons around.
What else can I help you with?
The element which is isoelectronic with phosphide ion?
Nitride (of Nitrogen), Arsenide (of Arsenic), Antimonide (of Antimony), Bismuthide (of Bismuth) and Boride (of Boron)
What elements are isoelectronic with neon?
C-4 N-3 O-2 F- Ne Na+ Mg+2
What is isoelectronic with Fluoride?
Hydroxide and water are isoelectronic with fluoride as they have the same number of electrons.
What is isoelectronic with argon?
Krypton, calcium, chlorine+1 are isoelectronic with argon because they all have the same number of electrons, 18.
What is the symbol for a cation and anion that are isoelectronic with krypton?
Atoms are isoelectronic when they have the same electron configuration. Therefore, an anion isoelectronic to krypton is bromide. A cation isoelectronic to krypton is rubidium.
What is wrong with the statement the atoms of element x are isoelectronic with the atoms of element y?
Nothing's wrong, except that it means elements X and Y are in fact the same element, if their atoms have the same number of electrons. --------- A more clear, correct and short answer: a neutral atom of an element can be isoelectronic only with an ionized atom of another element.
What is wrong with the statement ''the atoms of element X are isoelectronic with the atoms of element Y?
The statement is incorrect because isoelectronic means having the same number of electrons, but atoms of different elements have different numbers of protons and electrons. Elements X and Y can have the same number of electrons in their ions, but not in their neutral atoms.
Which noble gas is isoelectronic to thallium?
None. However, the noble gas helium is isoelectronic with Li+ ion (and not with Li element)
Which compound of nitrogen is isoelectronic with carbon monoxide?
The usual substance isoelectronic with carbon monoxide used for comparison is the simple substance dinitrogen gas. Dinitrogen gas is the familiar simple substance form of the element nitrogen.There is a compound of nitrogen, though, that is isoelectronic with carbon monoxide: hydrogen cyanide HCN.
Can you say that isotopes are isoelectronic species?
Isotopes are not considered isoelectronic species. Isotopes have different numbers of neutrons, while isoelectronic species have the same number of electrons. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.
The element which is isoelectronic with phosphide ion?
Nitride (of Nitrogen), Arsenide (of Arsenic), Antimonide (of Antimony), Bismuthide (of Bismuth) and Boride (of Boron)
What elements are isoelectronic with neon?
C-4 N-3 O-2 F- Ne Na+ Mg+2
Which noble gas is occupied by magnesium?
Magnesium element has no relation with noble gas. But Mg2+ ions and noble gas neon are isoelectronic.
Which atom is isoelectronic with sodium ion?
Neon is isoelectronic with the sodium ion.
Which noble gas is isoelectronic with a sulphur ion?
Argon is isoelectronic with the sulfide ion.
What is isoelectronic with Fluoride?
Hydroxide and water are isoelectronic with fluoride as they have the same number of electrons.
What noble gas is isoelectronic with the selenium?
