What is the smallest atomic radius in period 5?
Argon is the atom that has the smallest radius in Period 3. As you go cross Period 3 from left to right, the atomic radii of the elements decrease. The elements in Period 3 from left to right begin with sodium and ends with argon.
Atomic radius of argon?
The covalent radius of argon is 106 +/- 10 picometers.
Does argon have an atomic radius?
The covalent atomic radius of argon is 106 +/- 1o pm (pm is the acronym of the picometer).
What is the atomic radius of argon?

Why does the change for the atomic radii of the elements for period 3 from sodium to argon look similar to period 2?
Because the trend is the same. Atomic radius decreases from left to right across a period.
Why does the change for the atomic radii of elements in period 3 from sodium to argon look similar to period 2?
Because the trend is the same. Atomic radius decreases from left to right across a period.
Which has the smallest atomic number lead or argon or radon?

Is argon atomic?
Yes. Because argon is an element the smallest "piece" of it is referred to as an atom.
What gas has the largest atomic number in period 3?
Argon
Why is argon the last element in its period?
The reason Argon is the last element in its period is that it has the highest atomic number in its period, and that's the way all periods are arranged.
What is the trend in atomic size across the period from sodium to argon?
across a period, the atomic size decreases as the effective nuclear charge increases.
