How does ionic radius differ from atomic radius?

Ionic radius is greater than atomic radius in a negative ion and less than it in a positive ion.


Which element has a larger ionic radius than calcium?

(Chlorine, Fluorine, anything that gains an electron when it ionizes) For example: when F becomes F−, it gains one electron but has the same number of protons, meaning the attraction of the protons to the electrons is weaker, creating a larger radius.


Why are size of cations always smaller and size of anions always bigger than the corresponding atom?

anions always gain extra electrons casing the ionic radius to increase but cations remove electrons causing the ionic radius to decrease .therefore anionic radius is greater than cationic radius


Does K plus have a smaller radius than Ca2 plus?

I would not think so as their natural state radius is so close. Ca(2+) loses two electrons, so I think it would have the smaller ionic radius.
