Solution

The correct option is C (ii) and (iii)
Atomic radius is generally stated as being the total distance from an atom's nucleus to the outermost orbital of electron.

In (ii) & (iii), the atomic radii are rightly shown as the distance between the nucleus and the boundary of the valence electrons(shell).

Hence the correct option is B.
