What happens to the atomic radius when an electron is lost?
the positive ionic radius is smaller than the neutral atomic radius
Does a metal have a greater atomic radius or ionic radius?
A metal will tend to lose electrons and hence the atomic radius is higher than the ionic radius.
How does the ionic radius of a nonmetal compare with its atomic radius?
in the case of non-metals, the anions are formed by the addition of electrons. So the ionic radius is larger than that of the atomic radius
What happens to the atomic radius when an electron is gained?
The negative ionic radius is larger than the neutral atomic radius
What is the relationship of ionic radius and atomic number?
They both increase

Is H's atomic radius equal to He atomic Radius?
no, as they differ in the number of protons and neutrons
What is hydrogens atomic radius?
* Atomic Radius: 0.79Å * Atomic Volume: 14.4cm3/mol * Covalent Radius: 0.32Å * Ionic Radius: 0.012Å * Atomic Radius: 0.79Å * Atomic Volume: 14.4cm3/mol * Covalent Radius: 0.32Å * Ionic Radius: 0.012Å
What is the relationship of ionic radius and atomic number?
They both increase
What is the trend in ionic radius from left to right within a period?
Atomic radius
Is metallic radius only for metals?
Yes. There are other measures for ions (ionic radius) and free atoms(atomic radius) and covalent radius. Metallic, ionic and covalent are based on measurements of distances in crystals or covelnt bond lengths, atomic radius is based more on calcuation than observation.
What is another word for atomic radius?
The other word for atomic radius includes the Van der Waals radius, ionic radius, and covalent radius. The atomic radius refers to half the distance between the nuclei of identical neighboring atoms in the solid form of an element.
