In which of the following sets, all the given species are isostructural?
In which of the following sets, all the given species are isostructural?
CO2, NO2, ClO2, SiO2
PCl3, Al Cl3, BCl3, SbCl3
BF3, NF3, PF3, Al F3
BF-4 ,CCl4 ,NH+4 , PCl+4
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Isostructural species are the molecules that have the same shape and also the same connectivity. In the question, BF4- ,CCl4 ,NH4+ , PCl4+ are isostructural because they have tetrahedral structure. The atoms occupy one of the vertices of the tetrahedron around the central atom.

Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Transfer RNAs and ribosomal RNA do not interact with mRNA.
Statement II: RNA interference (RNAi) takes place in all eukaryotic organisms as a method of cellular defence.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:- NEET (UG) - 2025
- RNA interference
- Given below are two statements: Statement I: In the RNA world, RNA is considered the first genetic material evolved to carry out essential life processes. RNA acts as a genetic material and also as a catalyst for some important biochemical reactions in living systems. Being reactive, RNA is unstable.
Statement II: DNA evolved from RNA and is a more stable genetic material. Its double helical strands being complementary, resist changes by evolving repair mechanisms. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:- NEET (UG) - 2025
- Structure of DNA and RNA

- Two gases A and B are filled at the same pressure in separate cylinders with movable pistons of radii \(r_A\) and \(r_B\) respectively. On supplying an equal amount of heat to both the cylinders, their pressures remain constant and their pistons are displaced by 16 cm and 9 cm respectively. If the change in their internal energies is the same, then the ratio \(r_A / r_B\) is:
