Expert Solution

The atomic radius of a chemical element is a measure of the size of its atoms, usually the mean or typical distance from the nucleus to the boundary of the surrounding cloud of electrons.

Since the boundary is not a well-defined physical entity, there are various non-equivalent definitions of atomic radius. Three widely used definitions of atomic radius are: Van der Waals radius, ionic radius, and covalent radius.

I am attaching a peridic table of the atomic radii will help.

As per this table the correct answer for question 1) is d. F, Cl, S

2) DECREASING atomic radius

correct answer is b. Li > N > O > F
