Question

Which atom is bigger in size Ne (on) Ar? Why?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

❥ʜᴇʏᴀ ᴍᴀᴛᴇ ʜᴇƦᴇ ɪS ʏᴏᴜƦ ᴀɴSᴡᴇƦ :❥

➻Argon is bigger as it has 8 electrons in its l and m shells..... So due to strong repulsions its size is enlarged. Neon has 8 electrons in its l shell ... So it is smaller than argon.

Answer 2

Answer:

Argon

Explanation:

Argon is larger not only because it has more shells, but also because the inter shell repulsion force is larger due to the presence of more inner shell electrons, pushing its size to increase past neon. though noble gases usually have the smallest atomic radius, the rule that size increases the further down the periodic table still applies
