**Question:** Which of the following pairs of ions represent isoelectronic species?**Options:**A) Mg²⁺ and O²⁻ B) K⁺ and Li⁺ C) Ca²⁺ and F⁻ D) Fe²⁺ and S²⁻ E) Al³⁺ and Cl⁻ **Explanation:****Isoelectronic species** are atoms, molecules, or ions that have the same number of electrons. This property allows them to exhibit similar electronic configurations and often similar chemical properties with respect to electron-carrying behaviors, even if they are different species.To determine which pairs are isoelectronic, count the electrons in each ion and compare:- **Mg²⁺:** Magnesium originally has 12 electrons. Losing two electrons leaves it with 10 electrons.- **O²⁻:** Oxygen originally has 8 electrons. Gaining two electrons gives it 10 electrons.- **K⁺:** Potassium originally has 19 electrons. Losing one electron leaves it with 18 electrons.- **Li⁺:** Lithium originally has 3 electrons. Losing one electron leaves it with 2 electrons.- **Ca²⁺:** Calcium originally has 20 electrons. Losing two electrons leaves it with 18 electrons.- **F⁻:** Fluorine originally has 9 electrons. Gaining one electron gives it 10 electrons.- **Fe²⁺:** Iron originally has 26 electrons. Losing two electrons leaves it with 24 electrons.- **S²⁻:** Sulfur originally has 16 electrons. Gaining two electrons gives it 18 electrons.- **Al³⁺:** Aluminum originally has 13 electrons. Losing three electrons leaves it with 10 electrons.- **Cl⁻:** Chlorine originally has 17 electrons. Gaining one electron gives it 18 electrons.By matching the electron counts, we see that **option A, Mg²⁺ and O²⁻, are isoelectronic** as they each have 10 electrons.

Isoelectronic species has same number of electrons.
