Question

this question has two parts A and B.

Part A:

How does atomic radius change going down the group and why?

Decreases because there are less energy levels

decreases because the nucleus is stronger

Increases because more energy levels are being added down the group

Increases because the nucleus is weaker

Part B:

How does atomic radius change moving across the period?

Increases because there are more energy levels

Increases because the nucleus is less efficient (weaker)

Decreases because the nucleus is stronger and more efficient

Decreases because there are less energy levels
