Question

$C{O}_2$ is isostructural with

• A. $C{H}_4$
• B. $SnC{l}_2$
• C. $HgC{l}_2$
• D. $N{O}_2$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $SnC{l}_2$

The structure of $C{O}_2$ is linear $O=C=O$, similarly the structures of $HgC{l}_2$ is linear $(Cl-Hg-Cl)$. $SnC{l}_2$ and $N{O}_2$ have angular structures and $C{H}_4$ has tetrahedral structure.
