No. The Se ion will be larger than the Br ion. The more negative the anion's charge, the larger the radius (more electrons = stronger repulsion between the electrons; so, more distance between them). Se would become "Se2-" as an anion, and Br would become "Br1-". Because Se's "2-" anion charge is more negative than Br's "1-" anion charge, and because Se would have more relative electrons to protons than Br, there is more repulsion between electrons, and distance, within the Se ion. So, the Se ion has a larger radius. Hope it helps.
Selenium is more in common with Sulfur because they are in the same group. They have the same number of valence electrons and the only elements Selenium is related to is Sulfur and Tellurium. Anna C.

Nonmetals are gases (Cl, Ar, N...), liquids (Br) or solids brittle and with a very low hardness (S, P, Se..).
These triads are: Li-Na-K, Ca-Sr-Ba, Cl-Br-I, S-Se-Te.

Arranging Se, Te, and Br in order of increasing atomic size, you get: Br --> Se --> Te The trends are: atomic size increases right to left, and top to bottom.
According to 'Little and Jones' scale Cl 2.83 Se 2.48 S 2.44
