https://anandclasses.in/ionic-radius/ Anand Classes explains Ionic radius is the measure of the size of an ion, defined as the distance from the nucleus of the ion to the outermost electron shell. When an atom loses electrons to form a cation, the number of protons exceeds the number of electrons, pulling the remaining electrons closer to the nucleus and reducing the ionic radius. In contrast, when an atom gains electrons to form an anion, the increased electron–electron repulsion expands the outer shell, increasing the ionic radius. Understanding ionic radius trends across a period and down a group is important for predic
