Solution

The correct option is B $S O_{3}, {S O_{3}}^{2 -}$
$S O_{3}$ and $S O_{3}^{2 -}$ are not isostructural species. They are plane triangular and tetrahedral respectively. $S O_{3}$ contains 3 bonding domains and zero lone pairs of electrons. Hence, it has plane traingular geometry. $S O_{3}^{2 -}$ has 4 bonding domains and zero lone pairs of electrons. Hence, it is tetrahedral geometry.
