Atomic radius is usually inferred from crystallographic data on elemental solids and is a crude measure of the size of the electron cloud around the nucleus. The data below are atomic radii for the elements in the second row of the Periodic Table. Explain the trend.
Li : 0.152 nm
Be: 0.113 nm
B: 0.088 nm
C: 0.077 nm
N: 0.075 nm
O: 0.066 nm
F: 0.058 nm
Before the element scandium was discovered in 1879, it
was known as “eka-boron." Predict the properties of scan-
dium from averages of the corresponding properties of its
neighboring elements in the periodic table. Compare your
predictions with the observed values in Appendix F.
