A) \[T{{i}^{2+}}\]
B) \[N{{i}^{2+}}\]
C) \[P{{t}^{2+}}\]
D) \[Z{{r}^{2+}}\]
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
On moving along a period, ionic radii decreases while on moving down a group, ionic radii increases. Since, \[T{{i}^{2+}}\] and \[Z{{r}^{2+}}\] belong to IVB group and \[N{{i}^{2+}}\] and \[P{{t}^{2+}}\] belong to VIII group, ionic radii of \[T{{i}^{2+}}<Z{{r}^{2+}}\], and \[N{{i}^{2+}}<P{{t}^{2+}}\] Further \[T{{i}^{2+}}\] and \[N{{i}^{2+}}\] belong to same period, hence, \[N{{i}^{2+}}\] has the smallest radii among the given.
