Can metals have covalent radius and van der Waal's radius instead of metallic radius?​

Explanation:

Whether you choose to use van der Waals radii or metallic radii as a measure of the atomic radius, for metals the ionic radius is smaller than either, so the problem doesn't exist to the same extent. It is true that the ionic radius of a metal is less than its atomic radius (however vague you are about defining this).

i'm not sure

i'll try whatever you got
