they are bigger they are bigger
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.
Because the atomic radius increases down the group 1 and decreases down the group of halogen
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.
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.
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
Francium has the biggest atomic weight and the biggest atomic radius between the alkali metals.
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.
Noble gases have the smallest atomic radius.
Francium has the most larger atomic weight and also the largest atomic radius between the alkali metals.
The atomic radius of cations is lower.
The alkali earth metal with the smallest atomic radius would be beryllium(Be), number four
Atoms to the left on the periodic table Atoms with a large 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
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=]
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
