Providing reasoning, what is the trend in the atomic radius of row 3 elements across the periodic table?
Decreasing atomic radius across the periodic table.
- greater number of protons in the nucleus resulting in a greater nuclear charge.
- little/no change in shielding.
- electrons added to same shell.
- overall the atomic radius becomes smaller.
