Order each of the following sets of five atoms and ions according to decreasing size. "1" largest and "5" smallest.

O
S^2-
O^2-
Te^2-
Se^2-

I know the more negative the ion, the larger the element. but i dont understand how to do it when they all have the same charge, and an element with no charge.
