What Should I Cover in an Atomic Radius vs. Ionic Radius Presentation?

Click For Summary
Key points for an atomic radius versus ionic radius presentation should include definitions of both terms, their significance in chemistry, and factors affecting their sizes, such as nuclear charge and electron shielding. Discuss the trends in atomic and ionic radii across the periodic table, highlighting differences between cations and anions. Include practical examples of elements to illustrate these concepts. It’s also beneficial to touch on the implications of atomic and ionic radii in chemical bonding and reactivity. A well-rounded presentation will enhance understanding of these fundamental concepts in chemistry.

Homework Statement



That's the problem statement (above). I basically need help knowing which fields to cover while talking about said topic in a 5-minute oral presentation. Pretty much, what I need to talk about (specifically).

Homework Equations



None.

The Attempt at a Solution



Asking you guys :P

Thread 'Correct statement about size of wire to produce larger extension'

Thread 'Correct statement about size of wire to produce larger extension'

The answer is (B) but I don't really understand why. Based on formula of Young Modulus: $$x=\frac{FL}{AE}$$ The second wire made of the same material so it means they have same Young Modulus. Larger extension means larger value of ##x## so to get larger value of ##x## we can increase ##F## and ##L## and decrease ##A## I am not sure whether there is change in ##F## for first and second wire so I will just assume ##F## does not change. It leaves (B) and (C) as possible options so why is (C)...
