Explanation: Shielding is when electrons in the inner electron shells of an atom can shield the outer electrons from the pull of the nucleus. The nucleus can pull the outer electrons in tighter when the attraction is strong and less tight when the attraction is weakened. ... This means the atomic radius will be larger.
