  • question_answer
    Which of the following arrangements represents the increasing order (smallest to largest) of ionic radii of the given species\[{{O}^{2-}},{{S}^{2-}},{{N}^{3-}},{{P}^{3-}}\]?

    A) \[{{O}^{2-}}<{{N}^{3-}}<{{S}^{2-}}<{{P}^{3-}}\]

    B) \[{{O}^{2-}}<{{P}^{3-}}<{{N}^{3-}}<{{S}^{2-}}\]

    C) \[{{N}^{3}}<{{O}^{2-}}<{{P}^{3-}}<{{S}^{2-}}\]

    D) \[{{N}^{3-}}<{{S}^{2-}}<{{O}^{2-}}<{{P}^{3-}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] For isoelectronic species ionic radii decreases as the charge on ion decreases. Further on moving down in a group ionic radii increases. Hence the correct order is \[{{O}^{2-}}~<{{N}^{3-}}~<{{S}^{2-}}~<{{P}^{3-}}~\]
