| How does atomic radius change down a group in the periodic table? |
|
Definition
| First increases, then decreases. |
|
|
Term
| Why is the radius of a negative ion always greater than the radius of it's neutral atom? |
|
Definition
| Because the number of principal energy levels is always reduced. |
