Niels Bohr
Can nature possibly be as absurd as it seems?
Werner Heisenberg
The theory of quantum electrodynamics
describes nature as absurd from the point of
view of common sense. And it agrees fully with
experiment. So I hope you can accept nature as
she is — absurd.

Periodic Properties of Ions — Ionic Radius Periodic Properties of Ions — Ionic Radius
• Cations are smaller than their parent atoms, since
electrons are being removed from the valence shell.
• Anions are larger than their parent atoms, since e--
e- repulsions increase when electrons are added.
• The greater the positive charge, the smaller the ionic
radius (e.g., Fe3+ < Fe2+).
• Trends in ion size are the same as for neutral atoms:
– Ionic radius increases down a group.
– Ionic radius decreases for cations across a period.
– Ionic radius decreases for anions across a period.
• Isoelectronic ions decrease in radius as the number
of protons increases.
