Chemistry Question on Classification of elements & periodicity in properties

Atomic radius (pm) of Al, Si, N and F respectively is

A

117, 143, 64, 74

B

143, 117, 74, 64

C

143, 47, 64, 74

D

64, 74, 117, 143

Answer

143, 117, 74, 64

Explanation

Solution

AlAl, Si belong to 3rd period of periodic table while NN, and fluorine to second period. The size of element decreases from left to right in a period hence the order of size is
Al>Si>N>FAl > Si > N > F
