noble gasses have a full outer shell of 8 electrons which makes them fairly stable as they have no more room in that shell for another electron nor do they have the need to share there electrons with another element to gain a full outer shell

What happens to the atomic radius when you go from left to right on the periodic table of elements?

The atomic radius decrease, with several exceptions in periods 6 and 5.


Which of the following decrease as you go from left to right on the periodic table?

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


How does the atomic radius increase or decrease horizontally on the periodic table?

Atomic radius decreases horizontally in periodic table. This is due to increase in nuclear charge.


How does the atomic radius change from the left to the right horizontal row in the periodic table?

from left to right the atomic radius decreases as the electrons that get added are added in the same shell as they are in the same period. the shielding effect remains constant but the proton number increases which inturn increases the effective nuclear pull on the electrons bringing the electrons closer to the nuclei hence decreasing the radius of the atom


Does the atomic radius decrease as you move up a group and across a period from left to right on the periodic table?

the atomic radius decreses from left to right in periodic table due to increase in the number of succesive element the electrons of the outermost shell are more attracted towards nucleus and the atomic radius or atomic size decreases.


WHAT BEST STATES THE TREND IN ATOMIC RADIUS ACROSS THE PERIODIC TABLE?

As you move across the periodic table from left to right (across a period), the atomic radius of the elements tends to decrease.


The atomic number increases and therefore the atomic radius as you move across the table from left to right.?

decreases


In general the atomic radius of an atom as you move down a column in the periodic table?

Decreases. Look at the images under atomic radius, on wikipedia.


What accompanies an increase in atomic number within a specific period?

An increase in atomic number would be accompanied by a decrease in radius, and an increase in electronegativity.


What trends in size are found among elements in the same period?

The atomic radius decrease from left to right.


What happens to the atomic radius as the atomic number increases?

Going across a row in the peiodic table, the atoms have more protons and electrons causing a stronger attractive force, pulling the electrons closer to the nucleus, making the atomic radius decrease. As a new shell is added ( next row down) the atomic radius increases


What is the correlation of ionization energies to atomic radii for the elements?

In a group the ionization energy decrease when the atomic radius increase; in a period this relation is not generally valid.
