Bromine's atomic radii is larger than that of chlorine.


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.


When phosphorus becomes phosphide what happens to radius?

The radius of any anion is larger than the original neutral atom. So phosphide (P^3-) which as gained 3 electrons, has a larger radius than phosphorous (P).


What has a larger atomic radius Cl ion or Ca ion?

Calcium has the larger atomic radius than chlorine. Calcium has four energy levels, whereas chlorine has three energy levels. The higher the energy level, the farther it is from the atomic nucleus.


Which is bigger in size aluminum atom or chlorine atom?

Elements atomic radii increase in size as they run down the columns of the periodic table or across the periodic table from right to left. So, Al is larger than Cl. XP


Does chlorine atom has a smaller radius than chlorine ion?

Yes, considerably so. In general, positive ions are smaller than their neutral atoms, and negative ions are larger than their neutral atoms.


Which has a larger radius arsenic or phosphorus?

Carbon has a larger atomic radius than nitrogen. The radii of these compounds are 67pm and 56pm, respectively. This occurs because the electrons in nitrogen are more attracted to the nucleus than electrons in carbon.


Why is Mg smaller than Cl?

Magnesium isn't smaller than chlorine, it's larger. The atomic radius for magnesium is 145 pm and the atomic radius for chlorine is 79 pm. Both magnesium and chlorine are in the third period of the periodic table. The trend for atomic radius is that the elements generally get smaller as you move from left to right across the table in the same period.
