As you move down a group in the Periodic Table, atoms get larger because each row adds an additional energy level, or shell, which increases the distance between the nucleus and the outermost electrons. This results in a larger atomic radius.

Do atoms get larger as they move downward in a column of Periodic Table?

Yes. Atoms get larger as they move downward in a column of periodic table. This is because of increase in number of shells down the group.

Is chlorine larger in atoms than bromine?

No, chlorine is smaller in size compared to bromine. This is because as you move down a group in the periodic table, the atoms increase in size due to additional electron shells being added. Chlorine is above bromine in the same group (halogens) on the periodic table.

Down the group, size increases. Because number of shells increases.


Where is the largest atoms are found where on the periodic table?

The largest atoms are typically found in the bottom left corner of the periodic table, in the category of alkali and alkaline earth metals. These atoms have more electron shells and therefore larger atomic radii compared to atoms in other areas of the periodic table.
