Consider the halogen family from fluorine to iodine which element would have the largest ionic radius?

Explanation:

Elements that belong to group 7A are known as halogen family members. The elements which belong to this group are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine.

It is known that when we move down a group then there occurs an increase in the size of atoms. This is because number of shells increases on moving down the group.

Since, fluorine is the top most element of group 7A so, it has the smallest ionic radius. Whereas iodine is thelargest in size hence, it has the largest ionic radius.

Thus, we can conclude that iodine is the element that would have the largest ionic radius.

nacl or sodium chloride is an ionic compound. this is because an ionic compound pertains to a compound that consists of positively and negatively charged ions. in this case, na (sodium) has a tendency to lose one electron when it reacts with with other atoms, so the resulting sodium ion contains 11 protons and 10 electrons, thus making it positively charged (na+), when chlorine reacts, it usually gains one electron to form an ion called chloride, thus making it negatively charged ( since the ions are oppositely charged, they attract.

the right answer is c i just did the question.
