The atomic radius of the Ga is less than Al because of poor screening effect. that's why it's smaller than aluminum.

harsh12320: and it have diffused orbitals
ShailendraRathour: But why d orbital shows poor shielding effect
harsh12320: not only d orbitals but the diffused orbitals show poor shielding effect
ShailendraRathour: But why
harsh12320: you know poor sheilding effect
ShailendraRathour: Yes
harsh12320: what is it
ShailendraRathour: but why they perform poor shielding effect
harsh12320: first tell what is poor shielding effect
ShailendraRathour: Interelectronic repulsion performed by the electrons present in an atom
