Solution

The correct option is C NO3 and CO23
Solution:
Isostructural chemical compounds have similar chemical structures.

Isoelectronic terms refer to two atom, ions or molecules that have the same number of valence electrons.

NO3=7 +8×3 +1=32

CO23=6 + 8×3 +2=32

Both has sp2 hybridisation

Hence option C is correct
