Answer:

ionic radii of elements increases down the group

Explanation:

Although at ionic state elements acquire noble gas configuration, there is an extra energy level down the group.

This leads to a decrease in attraction between electrons and the nucleus down the group.

For advanced level

Down the group an extra energy level creates screening of the penultimate shell decreasing the effective nuclear charge.

This leads to increase in the radius
