Solution

The correct option is B 56 pm
Atomic radius of carbon and oxygen is 67 pm and 48 pm. Atomic radius of nitrogen is 56 pm. In moving from left to right across a period, the atomic radius decreases as the effective nuclear charge increases. Hence, atomic radius of nitrogen is in between the atomic radii of carbon and oxygen.
