Why does the atomic radius decrease as electrons are added to a shell?

Answers

Answered by anjalirehan04

Atomic radius decreases across a period because valence electrons are being added to the same energy level at the same time the nucleus is increasing in protons. The increase in nuclear charge attracts the electrons more strongly, pulling them closer to the nucleus.

Q1. Take a container, fill it with water and close it with a lid. Put the water to boil. Now put some peas, spoon and beads on top of the lid. What do you notice? As the water boils the lid begins to shake. The things which you have put on the lid also vibrate. The beads roll down and the spoon vibrates to make a sound. In the same manner, the earth vibrates when an earthquake occurs.
