The radius of potassium ion
The radius of potassium atom is 0.203 nm. The radius of the potassium ion in nanometer will be :-
(1) 0.133
(2) 0.231
(3) 0.234
(4) 0.251
Dear student,
The correct option is (1)
Reason : K K+ + e-1
Due to the formation of cation outermost electrons comes closer to the nucleus thus radius must be lower than 0.203 nm
