What has the largest radius magnesium silicon sulfur or sodium?

Among magnesium, silicon, sulfur, and sodium, sodium has the largest atomic radius. This is due to its position in the periodic table; sodium is an alkali metal with a larger atomic radius compared to the other elements, which are nonmetals or metalloids. As you move down a group in the periodic table, the atomic radius increases, and sodium is lower in its group than magnesium, silicon, and sulfur. Thus, sodium has the largest radius of the four elements.


Which of these elements has largest atomic radius sodium aluminium silicon sulfur?

Sulfur has the largest atomic radius among sodium, aluminum, silicon, and sulfur. This is because atomic radius generally increases as you move down a group in the periodic table, and sulfur is located further down the group compared to the other elements listed.

How do sodium silicon and sulfur differ from another?

Sodium is an alkali metal with 1 very reactive electron in its outer shell, it tends to form ionic bonds. Silicon is a semiconductor/pseudo-organic with 4 electrons in its outer shell, it tends to form covalent bonds. Sulfur is a non-metal with 6 electrons in its outer shell, it tends to like to borrow other atoms electrons but also forms covalent bonds.
