while going from left to right within a period the atomic number decreases one by one meaning the positive charge on the nucleus increases by one unit at a time however the additional electron gets added to the same outermost shell due to the increase nuclear charge the electrons are poet towards the nucleus to a greater extent and thereby the size of atom decreases
