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.


Which of the given elements has the smallest atomic radius in 3rd period in periodic table?

Lithium(520)


Why does argon have the smallest atomic radius in period 3?

Argon doesnt have the smallest atomic radius, its chlorine.Argon has the largest atomic radius in period 3.


The elements with the smallest atomic radii are found in the?

The elements with the smallest atomic radii are found in the top of the P block of the periodic table. Helium (He) has the smallest atomic radius. Francium, on the other side of the periodic table (very bottom of the S block), has the largest atomic radius.


What elements have the smallest atomic radius in group 1?

atomic radius increases as you go down the group and decreases as you go across the period therefore the smallest atomic radius for group 14 is carbon.


Bromine potassium copper and calcium in increasing size would be ordered like what?

Bromine, Copper, Calcium, PotassiumBromine- smallest, 4th period atomic #35Copper- second smallest, 4th period, atomic # 29Calcium- second largest, 4th period, atomic # 20Potassium- largest, 4th period, atomic # 19
