Periodic Table and Periodicity question

2003 · Q111

NEETChemistryPeriodic Table and PeriodicityMCQ+4 / −1
The ions O2−-−, F−-−, Na+, Mg2+ and Al3+ are isoelectronic. Their ionic radii show
  1. A
    a significant increase from O2−-− to Al3+
  2. B
    a significant decrease from O2−-− to Al3+
  3. C
    an increase from O2−-− to F−-− and then decrease from Na+ to Al3+
  4. D
    a decrease from O2−-− to F−-− and then increase from Na+ to Al3+.
View written solutionFree

Correct answer: B

Amongst isoelectronic ions, ionic radii of anions is more than that of cations. Further size of the anion increases with increase in -ve charge and size of cation decreases with increase in +ve charge. Hence, the correct order is

O2- > F- > Na+ > Mg2+ > Al3+
