Arrange the following elements in the descending order of atomic size and give a reason for your answer. Mg, CI, P. Ar Atomic number of elements is 12, 17, 15, 18.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Mg, P, Cl, Ar.
Increase in atomic number means increase in nuclear charge which tends to pull the electrons closer to the nucleus and reduces the size of atom.
