        Which one of the following ions has the highest value of ionic radius?

    A)  \[L{{i}^{+}}\]                                    

    B)  \[{{B}^{3+}}\]

    C)  \[{{O}^{2-}}\]                                   

    D)  \[{{F}^{-}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    All the ions belong to same period thus for them cations will be smaller than anions. Now, \[{{O}^{2-}}\]and\[{{F}^{-}}\]are isoelectronic and\[{{r}_{n}}\propto \frac{1}{Z}\] Thus ionic radius of\[{{O}^{2-}}(Z=8)>{{F}^{-}}(Z=9)\]
