A solid `XY` has `NaCl` structure. If radius of `X^(+)` is `100 p m`. What is the radius of `Y^(-)` ion ?

A

120 pm

B

136.6 to 241.6 pm

C

280 pm

D

Unpredictable

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
From the radius ratio limit for NaCl type crystal i.e., `0.414-0.732`calculate the `r^(-)` for two limiting values.
