Scandium is slightly larger than Titanium due to one unit less nuclear charge.
No. It is smaller.
Titanium is a chemical element. At its most basic form, titanium exists as an atom, like all other elements.
We are working on this in Physical Science class. A negative ion is larger then its parent atom. A positive ion is smaller then its parent atom. =]
a larger nuclear charge
Rubidium is a neutral atom in its elemental form. The rubidium ion, found in rubidium compounds, is smaller than a neutral rubidium atom.

The statement that an atom of the element scandium has only one electron is incorrect.
Smaller
No. It is smaller.
No, it is smaller
an electron is much much smaller than an atom. An electron is a portion of the nucleus in an atom.
Scandium empirical atom radius: 160 pm Scandium calculated atom radius: 184 pm
No, since electrons are part of an atom, they are smaller -- much smaller. In fact, they weigh practically nothing.
