The atomic radius of the Ga is less than Al because of poor screening effect. ... This makes the pronunced effect of nuclear charge (Zeff) and we find reduction in atomic radius of Gallium. It is thus diffused d-orbitals and their inability to shield the strong +ve charge which changes the trend ofAtomic Radius.
Snuffles:
Can you reduce the answer and only choose the details please ?
