Which ion has the largest radius?
Se2-, F-, O2-, Rb+

Please give explanation also.

Dear student,

17.
The left to right moving in periodic table the nuclear attraction between nucleus and electrons increases and the size decreases.
While moving down the group as the number of shells increases the radius increases.
