Using "No" With Countables
Which one is correct?
"There is no student in the class"
"There are no students in the class"
Thanks

There are no students in the class.

Re: Using "No" With Countables
The second of your examples is correct (if you add a full stop).
However, I'm not saying that would apply to every sentence using 'no' with a countable noun.

Now that you pointed out the missing full stop, you could say "There is no student in the class [who knows the answer]."
