Question
question 10 (1 point) atomic radius increases as you move down a group (keep the numbers) o true o false
Brief Explanations
As you move down a group in the periodic table, the number of electron shells increases. This leads to an increase in atomic radius. For example, in Group 1 (alkali metals), lithium (Li) has a smaller atomic radius than sodium (Na), which in turn is smaller than potassium (K). The outermost electrons are further from the nucleus as we go down the group due to the addition of new shells, resulting in an increase in atomic radius.
