Question

The increasing order of the atomic radii of elements $$Na, Rb, K, Mg$$ is

A
$$Na < Mg < K < Rb$$
B
$$K < Na < Mg < Rb$$
C
$$Na < K < Mg < Rb$$
D
$$Mg < Na < K < Rb$$
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Correct option is D. $$Mg < Na < K < Rb$$
On moving down the group, size of element increases due to addition of new shells. On moving from left to right across a period, size of element decreases due to addition of electrons in same shell and increase in effective nuclear charge.
