Study Notes
- Atomic radius quantifies an atom's size, reflecting the average distance from the nucleus to the electron cloud boundary.
- Atomic radius has varying definitions due to indistinct electron boundaries.
- Van der Waals radius, ionic radius, and covalent radius are common definitions.
Atomic Radius Trends in the Periodic Table
- Atomic radius increases down a group due to adding electron shells further from the nucleus.
- Atomic radius decreases across a period as increasing protons enhance nuclear charge.
Influencing Factors
- Nuclear charge affects the radius; more protons lead to a stronger pull on electrons, decreasing the atomic radius.
- The shielding effect impacts atomic size; inner electrons shield outer electrons from the nucleus' positive charge, increasing the atomic radius.
