Ionic radii generally follow the same trend as the:
AAtomic volumes
BAtomic radii
CAtomic weights
DAtomic numbers
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Atomic radii
1. The two kinds of radius are closely related.
2. Both are governed by nuclear charge and electron count.
3. So ionic radii follow the trend of atomic radii.
