Classification of Elements and Periodicity in Properties
The species Ar, K+ and Ca2+ contain the same number of electrons. In which order do their radii increase?
Ar < K+< Ca2+
Ca2+ < Ar < K+
Ca2+ < K+ < Ar
K+< Ar < Ca2+
B.
Ca2+ < Ar < K+
Ca2+ < K+ < Ar
Ar, K+ and Ca2+ are isoelectronic i.e with the same number of electrons, 18. For isoelectronic species, ionic radii decrease with increases in effective (relative) positive charge. Also Ar, K and Ca belong to the same period.
