Be²⁺ is isoelectronic with which of the following ions?
H⁺
Li⁺
Na⁺
Mg²⁺
Isoelectronic species are atoms, ions, or molecules that possess the same total number of electrons. To find the correct option, we compare the electron counts:
Since both Be²⁺ and Li⁺ have 2 electrons (helium core configuration ), they are isoelectronic.
