F has one extra electron, which will goes in outer layer making F bigger.
Na has one less electron, which will cause its size to get smaller.
Ionic radius is greater than atomic radius in a negative ion and less than it in a positive ion.
Because they have less negative electrons to hold onto & there aren't as many in the outer sublevels, so they can hold them closer to the nucleus causing the radius to shrink.
A positive ion has less electrons in its shell than a neutral atom. As a result of this, there is less repulsive force between the orbiting electrons (less electrons, less force) and they can come closer to the positively charged nucleus (which is attracting them). You will have an especially large decrease in radius if you remove the last electron from a shell (the electrons are composed into shells, the first one takes 2 electrons, second one 6, the third one 10 and so on).
The size of the Radius of a positve ion is smaller than a neutral atom because the postive ion has lost electrons, which means the outer most shell might be lost as well making the positve ion smaller and the nuetral atom remains the same
A large difference in electronegativity values between the two atoms forming the bond will cause the bond to be ionic. The electrons from the less electronegative atom will be completely donated to the atom with the greater electronegativity. This occurs when a metal and a non metal bond.

Compound made of ions, which are atoms of an element with more or less electrons than number of protons, giving them a positive or negative charge.
A negative number is less than a positive number. Think about it this way: a negative number is less than 0. A positive number is greater than 0. Therefore, a negative number must be less than a positive number.
Zero isn't positive or negative. All negative numbers are less than zero.There is no such thing as "positive" (or "negative") zero.Also, a negative number is always less than any positive number.
In math, a positive is a number greater then zero, and a negative number is less than zero.
I'm not positive but.... the ionic radius of a metallic atom is slammer than its atomic radius because metallic atoms want to loose electrons. The loss of electrons increases the pull of the nucleus, drawing the electrons closer and thereby making the ionic radius smaller than the atomic radius.
Yes. A negative number is less than a positive.
In math, a positive is a number greater then zero, and a negative number is less than zero.
No, negative 8 is less than positive 8.
The size of the Radius of a positve ion is smaller than a neutral atom because the postive ion has lost electrons, which means the outer most shell might be lost as well making the positve ion smaller and the nuetral atom remains the same
