Why Do Cations Have Smaller Radius? [Solved]
A cation has a smaller radius than its neutral atom because it loses valence electrons. The “new” valence shell is held closer to the nucleus, resulting in a smaller radius for the cation. An anion has a larger radius than the neutral atom because it gains valence electrons.
