The correct decreasing order of atomic size among the following species is :
`Ar,K^(+),Cl^(-),S^(2-),Ca^(2+)`

A

`Ca^(2+) gt K^(+) gt Ar gt Cl^(-) gt S^(2-)`

B

`K^(+) gt Ca^(2+) gt Cl^(-) gt Ar gt S^(2-)`

C

`S^(2-) gt Cl^(-) gt Ar gt K^(+) gt Ca^(2+)`

D

`S^(2-) gt Ar gt Cl^(-) gt Ca^(2+) gt K^(+)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

In isoelectronic ions, the atomic size decreases as z/e ratio increases.
`S^(2-) (z)/(e) = (16)/(18), Cl^(-1) (z)/(e) = (17)/(18), Ar(z)/(6) =(18)/(18), K^(+) (z)/(e) = (19)/(18), Ca^(2+) (z)/(e) = (20)/(18)`
