How do the atomic radius and metallic properties of sodium compare to the atomic radius and metallic properties of phosphorus?
Sodium has a larger atomic radius and is more metallic.
Which alkali earth metal has the smallest atomic radius?

What is the atomic radius of platinum?
Platinum is a metal element. Atomic mass of it is 195.08.
An ionic bond forms between?
Ions of opposite charge, cations and anions. Often these involve a metal cation and a non-metal anion but this is not always the case for example ammonium sulfate contains a poly atomic cation and a poly atomic anion and all of the elements present are non-metals.
Is the atomic radius generally smaller than the ionic radius of a non metal?

What is the ionic radius trend across a period?
Atoms increase in size as you go down a column and are larger going from right to left across a row.because while going from left to right in a period electrons enter in the same orbit and hence the attraction between the nucleus increasees
Why transition metal have same atomic radius?
this is because the effect of the increased nucleus i roughly balanced by the greater screening effect produced by adding to the penultimate shell
Why does the metal's radius get smaller and the nonmetal's radius get larger during an ionic bond?
Because the metal loses an electron (making it smaller) and the non metal gains that electron, making it larger.
What is the atomic radius for polonium?
Polonium (Po) has an atomic radius of 168 picometers.
