    Which of the following series of elements have nearly the same atomic radii?

    A) \[\text{ }\!\!~\!\!\text{ F, Cl, Br, I}\]          

    B) \[\text{ }\!\!~\!\!\text{ Na, K, Rb, Cs}\]

    C) \[\text{Li,}\,\text{Be,}\,\text{B,}\,\text{C}\]        

    D) \[\text{ }\!\!~\!\!\text{ Fe, Co, Ni, Cu}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     These   are   transition   metals   with   the \[(n-1){{d}^{1-10}}n{{s}^{1-2}}\]configuration. The atomic and ionic radii of transition elements in a given series show a decreasing trend for first five elements and then becomes almost constant for next five elements.
