MCQ
The atomic radii in periodic table among elements from right to left
  • A
    Decreases
  • Increases
  • C
    Remain constant
  • D
    First decreases and then increases

Answer

Correct option: B.
Increases
b
Atomic radius decreases from left to right within a period. This is caused by the increase in the number of protons and electrons across a period. One proton has a greater effect than one electron; thus electrons are pulled towards the nucleus, resulting in a smaller radius.

The atomic radii in periodic table among elements from right to left increases.
