The correct order of atomic radii of N, F, Al, Si is

  1. A \(\mathrm{F}\gt\mathrm{N}\gt\mathrm{Si}\gt\mathrm{Al}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{F}\gt\mathrm{N}\gt\mathrm{Al}\gt\mathrm{Si}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{Al}\gt\mathrm{Si}\gt\mathrm{F}\gt\mathrm{N}\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{Al}\gt\mathrm{Si}\gt\mathrm{N}\gt\mathrm{F}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\mathrm{Al}\gt\mathrm{Si}\gt\mathrm{N}\gt\mathrm{F}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

In periodic table, left to right atomic radii decreases and from top to bottom atomic radii increases. \(\therefore \quad \mathrm{Al}\gt\mathrm{Si}\gt\mathrm{N}\gt\mathrm{F}\)
