Decreasing size - biggest to smallest right?

Please help.

Cl   Na    Cl-   Mg2+    Na+   Mg.

I got Na,  Mg,  Na+,  Mg2+, Cl-,  Cl.

But supposedly that's wrong.

Take a look at the manual or Wikipedia (ionic_radius), and don't play guessing.

The Wikipedia article has a drawing that contains all your atoms and ions. While it is easy to indicate differences in the size of atomic or ion radii for an atom or ion of the same element or indicate trends for changing the radii of neutral atoms during the same period of the periodic table, it is impossible to predict these relationships for all atoms and ions from your task. You just have to read them from the table or picture.
