Answer #1

In O2- and Al3+

O2- = 1s2 2s2 2p6

Al3+ = 1s2 2s2 2p6

Same electronic configuration but the number of protons in Al is more than the number of protons so net effective attraction in Al is more so Al is small in size.

In Na+ & K+

Na+ = 1s2 2s2 2p6

K+ = 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6

Third shell is present in K+ so K+ is larger in size

K+ & O2-
