MCQ
For $Na^+ , Mg^{2+}, F^-$ and $O^{2-}$; the correct order of increasing Ionic radii is
  • A
    ${O^{2 - }} < {F^ - } < N{a^ + } < M{g^{ 2+}}$
  • B
    $N{a^ + } < M{g^{ 2+}} < {F^ - } < {O^{2 - }}$
  • $M{g^{ 2+}} < N{a^ + } < {F^ - } < {O^{2 - }}$
  • D
    $M{g^{ 2+}} < {O^{2 - }} < N{a^ + } < {F^ - }$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$M{g^{ 2+}} < N{a^ + } < {F^ - } < {O^{2 - }}$
c
All species are isoelectronic $(10e^-)$. isoelectronic series, when negative charge increases the radius of ion increases 

$\therefore  M{g^{ 2+}} < N{a^ + } < {F^ - } < {O^{2 - }}$
