Correct Answer - A
For `NO_(3)^(-)` ion, number of electrons
`=7+3xx8+1=32`
`H=(V+Y-C+A)/(2)=(5+1)/(2)=3`
`rArr` Hybridisation `=sp^(2)`
For `CO_(3)^(2-)` ion, number of electrons, `=6+3xx8+2=32`
`H=(4+2)/(2)=3`
`rArr` Hydrisisation `=sp^(2)`
`:.` Both `NO_(3)^(-) and CO_(3)^(2-)` are isoelectronic and isostructural species.
