Detailed Solution

Covalent and ionic (in a particular state) radii increase in size down the group. There is a considerable increase in covalent radius from N to P. However, from As to Bi only a small increase in covalent radii(lanthanoid contraction) is observed. This is due to the presence of completely filled d and f-orbitals in heavier elements.
