This is a summary of the atomic radius of elements in Periodic Table.

The size of atom increase when going down the group. 

The size of atom decrease when across a period (not including transition element).

Factor Zeff use when explaining size of atom across a period. Use shielding effect to explain the size of atom down a group. 

Multiple Select

Which statement(s) is/are true?

• Be is smaller than Mg due to Zeff.

• Li is smaller than Na due to shielding effect.

• B is larger than C due to Zeff.

• Al larger than Si due to shielding effect.

As you can see the size of atoms in transition elements (light blue) does not change significantly.

That's it for this session. Will continue our lesson next week.
