Question

On comparison of S and S 2- the S2- has (A) large radius and large size (B) small radius and large size (C) large radius and small size (D) small radius and small size

S2- forms on adding two electron in sulphur atom, so that the effective nuclear charge decreases and the electron orbital increases. Therefore, the size and radius of S2- is greater than the sulphur atom.

Q. On comparison of S and $S^{2 -}$ the $S^{2 -}$ has

large radius and large size

small radius and large size

large radius and small size

small radius and small size

$S^{2 -}$ forms on adding two electron in sulphur atom, so that the effective nuclear charge decreases and the electron orbital increases. Therefore, the size and radius of $S^{2 -}$ is greater than the sulphur atom.
