In the ions `P^(3-),S^(2-)` and `Cl`, the increasing order of size is:

A

`Cl^(-), S ^(2-), P ^(3-)`

B

`P ^(3-), S ^(2-) , Cl ^(-)`

C

`S ^(2-), Cl ^(-), P ^(3-)`

D

`S ^(2-) , P ^(3-) , Cl ^(-)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`P ^(3-), S ^(2-) and Cl ^(-)` have same number of electrons `(18)` and size decreases as nuclear charge increases.
`Cl ^(-) lt S ^(2-) lt P ^(3-)`
