Which one of the following indicates correct order of atomic size of the given elements?
Options
- ALi > B > F >N
- BN > F > Li > B
- CF > N > B > Li
- DLi > B > N > F
Correct answer
D. Li > B > N > F
Step-by-step solution
The atomic size/radius decreases in a period from left to right. Thus, ₃ Li > ₅ ~B > ₇ ~N > ₉ ~F
