The atomic radius in periodic table ……. in periods from left to right.
a) increases                                          

b) decreases
c) remains same                  

d) none of these

b

Explanation:In periods we move from left to right nuclear charge increases but shells remain constant so its nucleus pulls the shells and atomic size decreases.



The atomic radius in periodic table …….. in groups from top to bottom.
a) increases                                         

b) decreases 
c) remains same                  

d) none of these

a

Explanation:When we move from top to bottom number of shells increases and its size increases in groups.



The atomic radius of hydrogen in angstrom is
a) 2.35  

b) 1.21                  

c) 0.37   

d) 1.17
