Answer:

The eight protons in oxygen atom's nucleus will exert more force than nitrogen's seven electrons. Also, oxygen has same number of shells as nitrogen. Thus electrons in oxygen atom will be closer to nucleus than in the case of nitrogen. When electrons are closer it means atomic radius is smaller.

Hope this helps! :)
