| Atomic radius (pm) | 231 | 186 | 244 | 262 | 151 |
Which among the following elements has the largest atomic radii?
Write the formula of the product formed when the element A (atomic number 19) combines with the element B (atomic number 17). Draw its electronic dot structure. What is the nature of the bond formed?
- Electropositive nature of the element(s) increases down the group and decreases across the period
- Electronegativity of the element decreases down the group and increases across the period
- Atomic size increases down the group and decreases across a period (left to right)
- Metallic character increases down the group and decreases across a period.

- Name the most electropositive element among them
- Name the most electronegative element
- Name the element with smallest atomic size
- Name the element which is a metalloid
- Name the element which shows maximum valency.
