Which elements has the largest atomic radii in periodic table?

The atomic radii of members of the Group 1A (Alkali metals), increases down the group. Therefore Francium has the largest atomic radius of the Alkali metals. However Fr has no stable isotopes, thus is not naturally occurring. So Cs-133 is the largest you can find.


Why melting point decrease down the group for Alkali metals but increase for Halogens?

Because the atomic radius increases down the group 1 and decreases down the group of halogen


Which element has a larger atomic radius strontium or magnesium?

Strontium: At least within periodic table columns that do not include transition metals, an element with higher atomic number always has a larger atomic radius. This principle is generally correct also for columns that do include transition metals, but in an important exception, hafnium has almost the same atomic radius as zirconium, making the separation of these two metals very difficult by chemical means.


What does the horizontal placing of the elements in the periodic table signify?

It signify the group of the element. For example, the first group is called alkali metals. When it is moving from left to right of the periodic table, the atomic radius decreases, the ionization energy increases, and the electronegativity increases.


What happens to the atomic radius as you go down the metals What happens to the reactivity?

Examples for the groups I an II of the periodic table:- the atomic radius grows from top to bottom- the electronegativity descends from top to bottom

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


Why melting point decrease down the group for Alkali metals but increase for Halogens?

Because the atomic radius increases down the group 1 and decreases down the group of halogen

The atomic radius decreases as you go from left to right. or atomic radius cation radius && anion radius -barbie=]


The alkaline earth element having the largest atomic radius is found in period?

7th period because atomic size down the group increases. And Alkali Earth metals are found only in Group 1. The element is in Group 1 and period 7
