Question

The position of three elements a b and c in the periodic table are shown below group 6 group 7 giving reasons and explain . Element b has a larger atomic size than element c

Answer 1

Answer:

Atomic size of element element b will be larger.

Explanation:

Element b lies in the 7th. group and hence it has more atomic radius as it has more no. of shells as compared to Element in the 6th group.

Hence the power of attraction of electrons is more in the atom with less shell. Thus the size decreases.
