The correct Answer is:
To determine the correct order of increasing size among the given ions, we can use the concept of the Z/E ratio, where Z is the atomic number and E is the number of electrons. The size of an ion is inversely proportional to this ratio. Let's analyze the options step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Ions and Their Atomic Numbers:** - For the first option, we have I⁻, I, and I⁺. The atomic number (Z) of iodine (I) is 53. - For the second option, we have Fe, Fe²⁺, and Fe³⁺. The atomic number (Z) of iron (Fe) is 26. 2. **Calculate the Z/E Ratios:** - **For Iodine:** - I⁻: Z/E = 53/(n + 1) - I: Z/E = 53/n - I⁺: Z/E = 53/(n - 1) - Since the atomic number is constant (53), the number of electrons (E) changes: - I⁻ has the most electrons, followed by I, and then I⁺ has the least. - Therefore, the Z/E ratio increases in the order: I⁺ < I < I⁻. - This means the size order is: I⁺ < I < I⁻. 3. **For Iron:** - **For Iron Ions:** - Fe: Z/E = 26/n - Fe²⁺: Z/E = 26/(n - 2) - Fe³⁺: Z/E = 26/(n - 3) - Here, Fe has the most electrons, followed by Fe²⁺, and Fe³⁺ has the least. - Therefore, the Z/E ratio increases in the order: Fe³⁺ < Fe²⁺ < Fe. - This means the size order is: Fe³⁺ < Fe²⁺ < Fe. 4. **Combine the Results:** - From the first option, we have the order: I⁺ < I < I⁻. - From the second option, we have the order: Fe³⁺ < Fe²⁺ < Fe. - Thus, the correct order of increasing size for both sets of ions is: - I⁺ < I < I⁻ and Fe³⁺ < Fe²⁺ < Fe. 5. **Conclusion:** - The correct options that show the order of increasing size are: - I⁺ < I < I⁻ for iodine ions. - Fe³⁺ < Fe²⁺ < Fe for iron ions.
