JEE Main2014ChemistryClassification of Elements and Periodicity in PropertiesActual
Which one of the following has largest ionic radius ?
Options
- AF -
- BB 3 +
- CO 2 -
- DLi +
Correct answer
C. O 2 -
Step-by-step solution
With increase in +ve charge, size of cation decreases. With increase in -ve charge, size of anion increases. Across the period, ionic size, decreases. So correct order is B 3 +   <     Li +   <   F -   <   O 2 -
