- Arrange the above elements in decreasing order of their atomic radii.
- State the period to which the above elements belong.
- Why this arrangement of elements is similar to the above period of modern periodic table?
- Which of the above elements have the biggest and the smallest atom?
- What is the periodic trend observed in the variation of atomic radius while going from left to right within a period?

उत्तर
- Li > Be > B > C > N > O
- 2nd period
- Yes, this elemental arrangement resembles the era of the contemporary periodic table mentioned above. The positive charge on the nucleus grows one unit at a time as we move from left to right over a period of time, but when electrons are added to the same orbit, the pull away from the nucleus increases, reducing the size of the atom.
- Li is the biggest atom oxygen is the smallest atom
- While going from left to right within a period atomic radius decreases due to an increase in effective nuclear charge.
