∙ 14y agothe reason for this is because of the electromagnetic force, where opposite charges attract. The further right you go, the more electron and protons there are, therefore, because protons are in the nucleus (center) and electrons are in the electron cloud (outside the nucleus) the electron cloud is pulled towards the nucleus, making the atom smaller

What can you determine about an atom based on its Atomic Radius?
the further right you go on the periodic table, the atomic radius decreases. the further down you go on the periodic table, the atomic radius increases. you can determine where an atom is generally placed on the periodic table based on its atomic radius.
What does the periodic table contain?
The four pieces of information in each box of most periodic tables are the element's name, the element's symbol, the element's average atomic weight and the element's atomic number. Other periodic tables have other information, but standard periodic tables almost always have those four.
Was the first element on the periodic table of elements carbon?
NO!!! Hydrogen (H) is the first element on the Periodic Table. Reason Atomic No. = 1 Atomic mass( of protium) = 1 Carbon lies 6th position. Atomic No. = 6 Atomic mass = 12
What is an element id?
An element "I.D." is an element's atomic number. An element's atomic number shows how many electrons are in an atom of that element. An element's atomic number also determins their position on the Periodic Table.
What 4 things are included about each element in the periodic table?
4 things on the periodic are gold,people and zinc.
What is the atomic number on the periodic table?
The atomic number on the periodic table is the number of protons for the element.
What is the atomic number of an element listed in the Periodic Table refers to?
The atomic umber of an element listed in the periodic table refers to number of protons in the element. Atomic number is equal to number of protons.
What element has a relative atomic mass of 15.5?
Relative atomic mass, also called atomic weight, is listed on the periodic table for each element. There is no element listed on the periodic table with a relative atomic mass of 15.5.
What element on the periodic table weighs 19.32?
No element has an atomic weight of 19.32 on the periodic table.
Is the atomic number of each element included in the periodic table?
YES!!! The atomic No. is the postition of the element in the periodic table. It also indicates the number of protons in the element and electrons in the neutral element. The Atomic Mass is also included in the periodic table. The Atomic Mass is the sum of all the protons and neutrons of an element in the periodic table. Here are some examples. Hydrogen ; [1/1]H The first element in the table Carbon ; [12/6]C The sixth element in the periodic table Oxygen ; [16/8]O The eighth element in the periodic table et.seq., The first number given is the Atomic Mass and the second number is the Atomic Number.

What is the atomic mass of an element listed in the periodic table?
The atomic mass is the combined mass of the protons, neutrons and electrons in an element. It can be found below the element's symbol on the periodic table.
What element is the first on the periodic table?
Hydrogen is the first element on periodic table. Its atomic number is 1.
What does the atomic number show you about the element on the periodic table?
The atomic number is the number of protons present in the element.
Which element has the atomic nunber 1 and also comes first on the Periodic Table?
Hydrogen is the element having atomic number1 and comes first in the periodic table.
