The atomic numbers of the elements down a group increase. this means, more electrons. More electrons mean more shells. More shells mean larger radius. Larger radius is nothing but larger size.
Thus, the number of electrons or shells is the reason why the size of the atom of elements increase down the group.
Atomic size decreases as one moves from bottom to top in a group. The elements get smaller because they have less stuff in them.
The melting and boiling points increase down the group because of thevan der Waals forces. The size of the molecules increases down the group. This increase in size means an increase in the strength of the van der Waals forces.
Down a group, the number of shells increases, also the atomic size. Thus , the metallic character increase does increase as going DOWN a group. It is easy to remove an electron froman atom of bigger size.
Size typically increases going down a group due to an increasing number of electron shells, where the inner shells reduce the attractive forces of the nucleus and repel the electrons in the outer shell .
Because the atomic radius increases down the group 1 and decreases down the group of halogen
Atomic size increase down the group and decreases across the period.
Down the group, atomic radius increases. This is due to increase in number of shells.

yes
because new shell are being added as we move down the group and the electron is being far away from the nucleus so the attraction bettween the nucleus and the electron is smaller It means that their is a less use of ionisation energy . Therefore, atomic radius increase down the group.
Reactivity in group 1 of elements increases as we go down the group (to francium) because in the alkali metals as we go down the group number of atomic shells increases so the elements with most shells will easily release their electrons in the outer most shell.
there is an increase in atomic number and atomic size down the group due to addition of extra shells.this increase in the atomic size overcomes the effect of an increase in the nuclear charge.Therefore ionisation energy decreases with an increase in atomic size i.e.,it decreases as one moves down a group..
Atomic size increases down the group. The number of shells increases causing more atomic radius.
1. In a period is a trend of decrease from left to right but it is not absolute.2. In a group the atomic radius increase moving down.
Size typically increases going down a group due to an increasing number of electron shells, where the inner shells reduce the attractive forces of the nucleus and repel the electrons in the outer shell .
