The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the order of decreasing atomic radius for the given species, we need to understand the trends in atomic and ionic radii in the periodic table. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Trends in Atomic Radius**: - Atomic radius decreases across a period from left to right due to increasing nuclear charge, which pulls the electrons closer to the nucleus. - Atomic radius increases down a group due to the addition of electron shells. 2. **Consider the Effect of Ionization**: - Cations (positively charged ions) are smaller than their parent atoms because they lose one or more electrons, resulting in less electron-electron repulsion. - Anions (negatively charged ions) are larger than their parent atoms because they gain electrons, increasing electron-electron repulsion. 3. **Analyze the Given Options**: - **Option 1**: Cu²⁺, Cu⁺, Cu - Cu²⁺ < Cu⁺ < Cu (increasing order, not decreasing). - **Option 2**: V, V²⁺, V³⁺ - V > V²⁺ > V³⁺ (correct order of decreasing radius). - **Option 3**: F⁻, Br⁻, I - I > Br⁻ > F⁻ (Iodine has the largest radius, but the order is not correct as it should be I > Br⁻ > F⁻). - **Option 4**: B, Be, Li - Li > Be > B (this is incorrect as they are in the same period, and the order should be Be < B < Li). 4. **Conclusion**: - The only option that correctly lists the species in the order of decreasing radius is **Option 2: V, V²⁺, V³⁺**. ### Final Answer: The group that has the species correctly listed in the order of decreasing radius is **Option 2: V, V²⁺, V³⁺**.
