(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.

Most of the elements that form monatomic cations have this property. Some of them are lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, and barium.

None. If its of the same element, it's impossible for it to be any different

The smallest unit of an element is an "atom" of that element. No neutral atom of an element can be smaller than twice its atomic radius.

Why is calcium chloride an ionic bond?

Calcium chloride is an ionic bond because its made of more than one element.


How does the ionic radius of a nonmetal compare with its atomic radius?

in the case of non-metals, the anions are formed by the addition of electrons. So the ionic radius is larger than that of the atomic radius


Is calcium and calcium covalent or ionic?

Neither. No element will form ionic bonds with itself. Since calcium is a metal, its atoms are joined together by metallic bonds.

Is calcium oxygen ionic or covalent?

Calcium is a metal with an electronegativity of 1.0 and oxygen is a nonmetal with an electronegativity of 3.5. The electronegativity difference is 2.5, and anything over 1.7 indicates an IONIC BOND.
