Find the correct order of the given elements with respect to their size

  1. A \(\mathrm{Zn}>\mathrm{Fe}>\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}>\mathrm{Fe}^{3+}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}>\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}>\mathrm{Zn}>\mathrm{Fe}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{Fe}>\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}>\mathrm{Fe}^{3+}>\mathrm{Zn}\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{Zn}>\mathrm{Fe}^{3+}>\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}>\mathrm{Fe}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\mathrm{Zn}>\mathrm{Fe}>\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}>\mathrm{Fe}^{3+}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{Zn}\) atomic radii is \(137 \mathrm{pm}\) \(\mathrm{Fe}\) atomic radii is \(126 \mathrm{pm}\) \(\mathrm{Fe}^{3+}\) ionic radius is \(63 \mathrm{pm}\), \(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}\) has an ionic radius of \(77 \mathrm{pm}\). Thus, the correct order of their size is…
