The ionic radii of

Question:

The ionic radii of $\mathrm{O}_{2}{ }^{-}, \mathrm{F}^{-}, \mathrm{Na}^{+}$and $\mathrm{Mg}^{2+}$ are in the order :

  1. $\mathrm{F}^{-}>\mathrm{O}^{2-}>\mathrm{Na}^{+}>\mathrm{Mg}^{2+}$

  2. $\mathrm{Mg}^{2+}>\mathrm{Na}^{+}>\mathrm{F}^{-}>\mathrm{O}^{2-}$

  3. $\mathrm{O}^{2-}>\mathrm{F}^{-}>\mathrm{Mg}^{2+}>\mathrm{Na}^{+}$

  4.  $\mathrm{O}^{2-}>\mathrm{F}^{-}>\mathrm{Na}^{+}>\mathrm{Mg}^{2+}$


Correct Option: , 4

Solution:

as $\frac{z}{e}$ ratio increases size decreases.

Thus correct ionic radii order is

$\mathrm{O}^{-2}>\mathrm{F}^{-}>\mathrm{Na}^{+}>\mathrm{Mg}^{2+}$

Therefore correct option is (4)
