Why is the atomic radius of oxygen slightly more than that of nitrogen?

The ionisation energy of nitrogen is more than that of oxygen because

Assertion: Nitrogen has higher ionization enthalpy than oxygen. .Reason: Oxygen has stable half filled configuration .

Assertion: Effusion rate of oxygen is smaller than nitrogen. Reason: Molecular size of nitrogen is smaller than oxygen.

Atomic nitrogen has a higher ionization energy than atomic oxygen. This is best explained by:

Assertion: The diffusion rate of oxygen is smaller than that of nitrogen under identical conditions. Reason: Molecular mass of nitrogen is smaller than that of oxygen.

Statement-1: The diffusion rate of oxygen is smaller than that of nitrogen under same conditions of T and P. Statement-2: Molecular mass of nitrogen is smaller than that of oxygen.
