The Periodic Table of the Elements is useful for revealing patterns and trends in the elements. Which statement accurately describes a pattern in the size of atomic radii in the Periodic Table of the Elements?

• Atomic radii decrease from left to right across a period and decrease from top to bottom in a group.
• Atomic radii increase from left to right across a period and increase from top to bottom in a group.
• Atomic radii decrease from left to right across a period and increase from top to bottom in a group.
• Atomic radii increase from left to right across a period and decrease from top to bottom in a group.
