Concept explainers
The rank of the elements cesium, silver and oxygen in order of the size of the atoms from smallest to largest.
Answer to Problem 2TC
The ranking of the elements cesium (Cs) with atomic number
Explanation of Solution
In general, across a period from left to right, the atomic size decreases due to the increased effective nuclear charge and within a group from top to bottom the atomic size increases due to the successive addition of energy shells.
As cesium with atomic number
Conclusion:
Therefore the order is:
