Answer: 425

  1. rn=r0n2Zr_n = r_0\frac{n^2}{Z}, with r0=0.51 A˚r_0 = 0.51\ \mathring{A}, Z=3Z = 3 for Li++\text{Li}^{++}, n=5n = 5.
  2. r5=0.51×253=4.25 A˚r_5 = 0.51 \times \frac{25}{3} = 4.25\ \mathring{A}
  3. 4.25 A˚=425×10−12 m4.25\ \mathring{A} = 425 \times 10^{-12}\text{ m}
  4. So the answer is 425425 (×10−12\times 10^{-12} m).
