AI Generated Solution

To determine which group of elements has the largest atomic size in their respective periods, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Atomic Radius Trends - **Atomic Radius Increases Down a Group**: As you move down a group in the periodic table, the atomic radius increases due to the addition of electron shells. - **Atomic Radius Decreases Across a Period**: As you move from left to right across a period, the atomic radius decreases because of the increasing nuclear charge which pulls the electrons closer to the nucleus. ### Step 2: Identify the Groups - The periodic table is divided into groups (columns) and periods (rows). Group 1 elements are known as alkali metals, and they include lithium (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), rubidium (Rb), cesium (Cs), and francium (Fr). ...
