Chapter 3, Problem 3.68E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The element with the smallest atomic radius is to be predicted.

Concept Introduction:

The radius of an atom is defined as the distance between its outermost shell and nucleus. In the periodic table, the elements are arranged in order of their increasing atomic number. On moving from left to right in a periodic table, the atomic radii decrease. On the other hand, the atomic radii increase from top to bottom.
