What else can I help you with?
What happens to the size of the atomic radius as you go down the noble gas family?
The atomic radius increase down, from helium to radon.
What is the Group trend Atomic radius?
The group trend for atomic radius is that it tends to increase down a group in the periodic table. This is because as you move down a group, the number of electron shells increases, leading to a larger atomic radius. Additionally, the effective nuclear charge decreases down a group, which also contributes to the increase in atomic radius.
What happens to the atomic radius within a group of elements?
Because as you go down the group the atomic number increase. And by that the number of electrons in the electron cloud increases, thus widening the atomic radii. ***************2nd Opinion**************** If that were true, then atomic radius would also increase as you move to the right in a series. The reason atomic radius increases going down a family is that each atom has electrons in a whole new energy level compared to the atom above it. For example, Group 1: The outer shells are 1s, 2s, 3s, 4s, 5s, 6s, 7s.
What properties increase down the periodic table?
Atomic Mass
How do the sizes of atoms vary within a group (family)and explain why?
The atomic radius increase down in a group; the cause is the lower attraction from the nucleus atoms with increased bigger atomic mass.
What happens to atomic radius as you move from bottom to top of the periodic table?
atomic radius decreases from bottom to top of the periodic table.
What property increases going down the periodic table?
The atomic radius increases going down the periodic table due to the addition of more electron shells around the nucleus, leading to increased shielding effect and weaker attraction between the electrons and the nucleus.
How does Atomic Radius behave along the Periodic Table?
Atomic radius increases down a group due to increase in number of shells. Its value decreases along a period due to increase in nuclear charge.
What trend in atomic radius do you see as you go down a group on the periodic?
The atomic radius of elements increases as you go down a group. This increase in radius as you go down a period is primarily caused by the increasing principal quantum number of the outer electron shells.
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.
Why do elements increase in size as you move down the periodic table?
Down the group, atomic radius increases. This is due to increase in number of shells.
Which element will have a larger atomic radius magnesium or cesium?
Cesium will have a larger atomic radius than magnesium. This is because atomic radius tends to increase down a group in the periodic table, and cesium is located below magnesium in the periodic table.
