Select correct statement about radius of an atom:

A

Values of Vander waal's radii are larger than those of convalent radii because the Vander waal's forces are much weaker than the forces operating between atoms in a covalently bonded molecule.

B

The matallic radii are smaller than the Vander waal's radii, since the bonding forces in the metallic crystal lattice are much stronger than the Vander waal's forces.

C

Both `(A)` & `(B)`
