Question 8a
Step1: Recall periodic trend for atomic radius
Atomic radius decreases across a period (left to right) and increases down a group (top to bottom). Sodium (Na), Aluminum (Al), Sulfur (S), Chlorine (Cl) are in period 3. Order from left to right: Na, Al, S, Cl. So atomic radius: Na > Al > S > Cl.
Step2: Arrange in decreasing order
Based on the trend, the order from largest to smallest is sodium, aluminum, sulfur, chlorine.
Step1: Recall group trend for atomic radius
Be, Mg, Sr are in group 2. Atomic radius increases down a group. So Sr (bottom) > Mg > Be (top).
Step2: Arrange in decreasing order
Order: Sr, Mg, Be.
Step1: Recall period and group trends
Cs, Ba are in period 6, Bi is in period 6 too. Cs is in group 1, Ba group 2, Bi group 15. Across period, atomic radius decreases from left to right. So Cs > Ba > Bi.
Step2: Arrange in decreasing order
Order: Cs, Ba, Bi.
