12. Atomic radii of Fluorine and Neon in Angstrom units are given by |
|
Answer» Logic and Solution: The reported radii of noble gas elements are "van der Waals radii", which are 40% more than the actual atomic radii. Hence neon's atomic radius must be much more than that of fluorine. Note: It is not possible to get covalent and metallic radii for noble gases since they do not form bonds. fluorine= 0.72A°neon= 1.60A° |
