Which one is the correct order of the size of the iodine species. — Periodic Table and Periodicity Chemistry Question

💡 Solution & Explanation

I don't see the options (A, B, C, D) in your question. To provide a step-by-step solution explaining why D is correct, I need you to provide the iodine species being compared. **Please share the four ordering options**, for example: - A) $I^- > I_2 > I^+ > IO_3^-$ - B) $I_2 > I^- > I^+ > IO_3^-$ - (and so on...) Once you provide the options, I'll explain: 1. The relative ionic radii of iodine species 2. Why D represents the correct size ordering 3. Why the other options are incorrect
