    The correct order of the decreasing ionic radii among the following isoelectronic species are :

    A) \[C{{a}^{2+}}>{{K}^{+}}>{{S}^{2-}}>C{{l}^{-}}\]

    B) \[C{{l}^{-}}>{{S}^{2-}}>C{{a}^{2+}}>{{K}^{+}}\]

    C) \[{{S}^{2-}}>C{{l}^{-}}>{{K}^{+}}>C{{a}^{2+}}\]

    D) \[{{K}^{+}}>C{{a}^{2+}}>C{{l}^{-}}>{{S}^{2-}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] Among the isoelectronic species, size increases with the increase in negative charge. Thus \[{{S}^{2-}}\] has the highest negative charge and hence largest in size followed by \[C{{l}^{-}},\]\[{{K}^{+}}\]and Ca.
