The diameter (height) of an atom ranges from about 0.1 to 0.5 nanometers. The sizes of atoms vary depending on how high or low their Atomic Mass (number) is. The larger the atomic mass, the larger the atom.

The size of an atom doesn't necessarily change uniformly from top to bottom within the same period on the Periodic Table. Generally, as you move down a column (group) on the periodic table, the size of the atom tends to increase due to the addition of more electron shells. However, there can be variations due to different factors like the effective nuclear charge and orbital shapes.

Which grouping of circles when considered in order from the top to the bottom best represent the relative size of the atom of Li Na K and Rb respectively?
The smallest circle to the largest
What is true of the ionic size of the elements in a group as one moves from top to bottom in that group?
The ionic size of elements in a group increases as you move from top to bottom. This is because the number of electron shells increases, resulting in greater distance between the nucleus and the outermost electrons, making the ions larger.
If the nucleus of an atom were the size of a marble then the atom itself would be the size of?
The atom itself would be the size of an NFL stadium.
Why HF is less reactive than HCl?
Hydrofluoric acid (HF) is less reactive than hydrochloric acid (HCl) due to the stronger H-F bond compared to the H-Cl bond. This results in a higher bond dissociation energy for HF, making it less likely to ionize and release H+ ions. Additionally, the fluorine atom in HF is more electronegative than chlorine in HCl, leading to a more stable HF molecule.
What is the Size of carbon atom?
The size of a carbon atom can be described in terms of its atomic radius, which is about 70 picometers (pm) or 0.7 angstroms. This is the distance from the nucleus to the outer boundary of the electron cloud in a carbon atom.
Is the proton on the top or bottom of the atom?
The protons are at the center of the atom. An atom does not have a top or bottom.
What does electronegativity represent why does it increase left to right and top to bottom on the periodic table?
electronegativity represents the size of an atom
What happens to the atomic size from the top of the periodic table to the bottom?
The atomic size increase from top to bottom of Periodic Table. As the number of shells increases from top to bottom, the atomic size increases.
What happens to the atomic size from the top to the bottom of the periodic table?
The atomic size increase from top to bottom of periodic table. As the number of shells increases from top to bottom, the atomic size increases.
Is a parallellogram a trapezoid?
No, a parallellogram has the same both "top" and "bottom" size. A trapezoid has diffrent both "top" and "bottom" size.
Does an atom have a top and bottom?
No. Atoms are usually considered as spheres so the top or the bottom of one depends entirely on what direction you are viewing it from.
Which grouping of circles when considered in order from the top to the bottom best represent the relative size of the atom of Li Na K and Rb respectively?
The smallest circle to the largest
What is true of the ionic size of the elements in a group as one from the bottom to the top in that group?
Ionic size increases from top to bottom within the group.
What is true of the ionic size of the elements in a group as one moves from top to bottom in that group?
The ionic size of elements in a group increases as you move from top to bottom. This is because the number of electron shells increases, resulting in greater distance between the nucleus and the outermost electrons, making the ions larger.
What dress size is khloe Kardashian?
She is a size fourteen on top and sixteen on bottom.
Why nucleus not attract the atom from top to bottom in a periodic table?
As we move from top to bottom, number of shells increases and nuclear attraction decreases. Hence nucleus is not able to attract the element at bottom.
How is the size of a monitor measured top to bottom diagonally?
diagonally
