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.
How does the presence of core electrons affect the atomic radius of elements?
When there is an anion (negative charge) the radius will be larger because it is more full whereas it will be smaller if it is a positive charge because of less electrons. ex largest to smallest radius (K-,K, K+)
Does an element on the periodic table decrease in atomic size when you move across a period from left to right and when you move down a group?
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.
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 properties increase down the periodic table?
Atomic Mass
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.
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.
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.
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 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.
What happens to the atomic size of the atoms as you go from left to right of the periodic table?
The atomic radius decrease from left to right in the periodic table.
How do you increase or decrease the radius of a circle?
Increase or decrease the circle's diameter
What patterns do you notice as you move down the groups on the Periodic Table?
As the orientation goes down, the elements become more solid. :-)
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.
When atoms gains electrons what happens to the atomic radius?
The negative ionic radius is larger than the neutral atomic radius
How does the presence of core electrons affect the atomic radius of elements?
When there is an anion (negative charge) the radius will be larger because it is more full whereas it will be smaller if it is a positive charge because of less electrons. ex largest to smallest radius (K-,K, K+)
What happens to the gravitational field strength as you increase the radius?
it will decrease as radius increase keeping mass same
