Atomic radii have not been measured or calculated based on theoretical principles for all of the elements. However, based on the information available in the wikipedia tables of atomic radii it would appear that the largest atom will prove to be that of francium.
Atomic radius decreases across a row (increasing positive charge in the nucleus causes electrons in the same energy level to "shrink" into the nucleus due to electrostatic attraction). This means that potassium has the largest atomic radius in period 4.
Not necessarily. The atomic radius of an element is determined by the size of the atom's electron cloud. While atoms of the same element would typically have the same atomic radius, atoms of different elements can vary in size due to differences in their electron configurations and the number of protons in their nuclei.
Lithium is not the largest atom. Atoms increase in size as you move down a column in the periodic table, so atoms in the bottom row (such as the noble gases) are generally larger than lithium.
The atomic size of an element can be determined by measuring the distance between the nuclei of two bonded atoms of that element. This distance is known as the atomic radius and can be calculated using various experimental techniques such as X-ray crystallography or spectroscopy.
Atoms of the element cesium (also caesium), symbol Cs, element number 55.
Cesium, which is in Group 1 of the periodic table, has the largest atoms. This is because as you move down a group, the atomic size generally increases due to the addition of more electron shells.
The most common element in the universe is hydrogen.
Ununoctium
An atoms size is relative to the number of electrons an atom contains. Atoms with the least number of electrons are the smallest atoms. When atoms have the same number of electrons, the atom with the most protons will have the largest nuclear charge, and therefore be the smallest atom.
H16 would have the largest amount of atoms, so the answer would be:hydrogen
An isotope of an element.
the size
Atomic radius decreases across a row (increasing positive charge in the nucleus causes electrons in the same energy level to "shrink" into the nucleus due to electrostatic attraction). This means that potassium has the largest atomic radius in period 4.
Radon is the largest noble gas element in terms of atomic size.
From the given elements, Mg has the largest atomic radius, hence the size.
I think you mean what has the ... A pure isotope of an element.
