Expert Solution
Step 1

Mg > S > Cl 

As we move left to right in a period,  atomic redius decreases due to effective nuclear charge. 

Cs> Rb > Rb+

As we move down the group, number of shell increases consequently size increases. 

Cation has small size than corresponding atom due to higher effective nuclear charge .
