Answer:

iv. N³⁻, O²⁻, F⁻, Na⁺, Mg²⁺

Explanation:

Isoelectronic elements are those that have the same number of electrons. So, if at least 2 elements differ in their number of electrons, the series is not of isoelectronic elements.

To know the number of electrons we will consider the atomic number and add electrons if it is an anion and subtract electrons it is a cation.

Identify the isoelectronic elements.

  • i. Cl⁻, F⁻, Br⁻, I⁻, At⁻. NO. Cl⁻ has 18 electrons (17+1) and F⁻ has 10 electrons (9+1).
  • ii. Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, He. NO. Ne has 10 electrons and Ar has 18.
  • iii. N³⁻, S²⁻, Br⁻, Cs⁺, Sr²⁺. NO. N³⁻ has 10 electrons (7+3) and S²⁻ has 18 (16+2).
  • iv. N³⁻, O²⁻, F⁻, Na⁺, Mg²⁺. YES. They all have 10 electrons
  • v. Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Rb⁺, Cs⁺. NO. Li⁺ has 2 electrons (3-1) and Na⁺ has 10 (11-1).
