Hey !


____________________


Atomic radius : Atomic radius is defined as distance between centre of nucleus and outer most shell of an isolated atom.

Atomic size in group : Atomic size generally increases from top to bottom in a group.

Reason : It is die to addition of new shell i.e., number of shells go on decreasing

Atomic size in periods : Atomic size goes on decreasing along a period from left to right

Reason : It is due to increase in nuclear charge which pulls the electrons towards it , i.e., force of attraction between nucleus and valence electrons increases , therefore atomic size decreases.

The atomic radius increases as we go down in a group. This is because a new shell is introduced as we go down the group.

Hope this helps!!☺
