In which of the following sets, all the given species are isostructural?
In which of the following sets, all the given species are isostructural?
CO2, NO2, ClO2, SiO2
PCl3, Al Cl3, BCl3, SbCl3
BF3, NF3, PF3, Al F3
BF-4 ,CCl4 ,NH+4 , PCl+4
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Isostructural species are the molecules that have the same shape and also the same connectivity. In the question, BF4- ,CCl4 ,NH4+ , PCl4+ are isostructural because they have tetrahedral structure. The atoms occupy one of the vertices of the tetrahedron around the central atom.

Questions Asked in NEET exam
A bob of heavy mass \(m\) is suspended by a light string of length \(l\). The bob is given a horizontal velocity \(v_0\) as shown in figure. If the string gets slack at some point P making an angle \( \theta \) from the horizontal, the ratio of the speed \(v\) of the bob at point P to its initial speed \(v_0\) is :

- An oxygen cylinder of volume 30 litre has 18.20 moles of oxygen. After some oxygen is withdrawn from the cylinder, its gauge pressure drops to 11 atmospheric pressure at temperature \(27^\circ\)C. The mass of the oxygen withdrawn from the cylinder is nearly equal to: [Given, \(R = \frac{100}{12} \text{ J mol}^{-1} \text{K}^{-1}\), and molecular mass of \(O_2 = 32 \text{ g/mol}\), 1 atm pressure = \(1.01 \times 10^5 \text{ N/m}^2\)]
