This answer is
very close. The term isoelectronic means that an atom or molecule has the same
number of atoms and the same number of valence electrons. NO has 11 total
valence electrons not 10 as found in N2. These molecules are almost
isoelectronic with each other. They both have a triple bond between the two
atoms and one non-bonded pair of electrons on each atom. The only difference is
that one pesky extra electron which makes NO "radically" different : )
