Q. The ions with the greater positive charge or negative charge will have the radius, respectively with neutral atom

Classification of Elements and Periodicity in Properties

Solution:

The ion with the greater positive charge will have a smaller radius because of the greater attraction on the electrons due to the nucleus and ions with the greater negative charge will have large radius due to net repulsion of electrons.
