The atomic radius gets smaller the farther right it appears on the Periodic Table, until the addition of a new orbital increases the size again.


How does atomic radius vary in group and in period on periodic table?

Down a period the atomic radius increases as the number of shells (or energy levels) increases. Across a period the atomic radius decreases as the effective nuclear charge increases.
