The ionic radius of cation is always.

Statement 1: In crystal lattice, the size of the tetrahedral void is larger than an octahedral void. Statement 2: The cations occupy less space than anions in crystal packing.

Assertion : In any ionic solid [MX] with Schottky defects, the number of positive and negative ions are same. Reason : Equal number of cation and anion vacancies are present.

Assertion : A simplified coordination number ratio for ions of any ionic crystal is inverse of molar ratio. Reason : Coordination number ratio of cation to anion in CaF_(2) (fluorite structure) is 8 : 4.

Assertion (A) :KCl is more likely to show Schottky defect, while Lil is more likely to show Frenkel defect. Reason(R): Schottky defects is more likely in ionic solids in which cations and anions are of comparable size while Frenkel defect is more likely in which cations and anions have large differences in their ionic sizes.

Ions having same number of electrons are called isoelectronic ions. Give example of 2 cations and 2 anions which are isoelectronic with argon.
