a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The larger ion among the pair S2 and Cl should be determined.

Concept introduction: Atomic radii of atoms of elements down the group increase as Z increases because new shells are introduced and therefore the distance between nucleus and valence shell increases. Along a period, size or radii decreases as the electrons are introduced into the same shell and are pulled by higher nuclear charge.

b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The larger ions among the pair Tl+ and Tl+3 should be determined.

Concept introduction: Atomic radii of atoms of elements down the group increase as Z increases because new shells are introduced and therefore the distance between nucleus and valence shell increases. Along a period, size or radii decreases as the electrons are introduced into the same shell and are pulled by higher nuclear charge.

c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The larger ion among the pair Ce+3 and Dy+3 should be determined.

Concept introduction: Atomic radii of atoms of elements down the group increase as Z increases because new shells are introduced and therefore the distance between nucleus and valence shell increases. Along a period, size or radii decreases as the electrons are introduced into the same shell and are pulled by higher nuclear charge.

d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The larger ions among the pair S2 and I should be determined.

Concept introduction: Atomic radii of atoms of elements down the group increases as Z increases because new shells are introduced and therefore the distance between nucleus and valence shell increases. Along a period, size or radii decreases as the electrons are introduced into the same shell and are pulled by higher nuclear charge.
