— Draw a picture of a circle and label it’s radius.

— If the radius of a circle is increased, does it get bigger or smaller?

— Draw a picture of an atom and label it’s radius. What is atomic radius? — Atomic radius is… — the size of an atom. Electron Cloud • Electrons (−)

Nucleus • Protons (+) • Neutrons (0) 0 0 0 0 What is trend in atomic radius?

1. Atomic radius decreases across a period (LàR) — Atomic radius increases down a group (Top à Bottom)

Decreases Increases

biggest Chihuahua Story

— I am a dog walker

— Everyday I walk 8 Chihuahuas

— The stronger I am, the closer I can pull them towards me Chihuahua Story

— I am a dog walker

— Instead of 8 Chihuahuas, I now have 9

— I can’t fit any more around me, need a longer leash Quick Write

— How does this story relate to the trend in atomic radius across a period (L à R)? — More protons à more attraction à smaller size

— How does this story relate to the trend in atomic radius down a group (top à bottom)? — More electrons à more rings à bigger size

called “shielding” Example #1 Which has a smaller atomic radius, fluorine (F) or nitrogen (N)?

biggest Example #2 Which atom is larger in size, sulfur (S) or oxygen (O)?

biggest Example #3 What are 3 elements that have atoms smaller than Chlorine (Cl)?

biggest Which has a larger atomic radius, Si or P? Which has a larger atomic radius, Si or P? Answer: Si Which has a smaller radius, Cl or F? Which has a smaller radius, Cl or F? Answer: F What is bigger an atom of Cs or Ba? What is bigger an atom of Cs or Ba? Answer: Cs Which of the following is the largest in size? a. Al b. Mg c. S d.Rb Which of the following is the largest in size? a. Al b. Mg

c. S Answer: d. Rb d.Rb Which of the following has the smallest atomic radius? a. Rb b. Sr c. Cs Answer: b. Sr d.Ba Rank the following in order of decreasing atomic radius: Cl, K, Mg, Si Rank the following in order of decreasing atomic radius: Cl, K, Mg, Si

Answer: K > Mg > Si > Cl Exit Slip
