atomic radii is the radius of the atom when it's in neutral. ionic radii is the radius of the atom when it losses or gains electron ( become an ion) so for the very same element the number of electrons in atom differs than the number of electrons of the ion which might cause a change in the number of orbitals and the radius. As an example: Oxygen loves to accept two electrons to make a perfect octete or "8" electron valence shell of electrons. This ion with it's 2 extra electrons has a radius of: 1 .40 A Without the two added electrons, it has a radius of: 66 pm Sometimes the atomic radius is larger, sometimes it is smaller than the neutral atom hope this helps
