Answer:
Phosphorous has the smallest atomic size.
Explanation:
As we know these elements belong to same period means there valence shell is the same. So moving from left to right along the period the shell number remains constant but the number of protons and electrons increases. So, due to increase in number of protons the nuclear charge increases hence attracts the valence electrons more effectively resulting in the decrease of atomic size.
Elements and their atomic radius are as follow,

Aluminium 0.130 nm

Silicon 0.118 nm

Phosphorus <span>0.110 nm</span></span></span>
I was hoping that some choices would be given to choose from. As there are no choices given, so i am answering the question based on my knowledge and hope that it comes to your help. Calcium hydroxide is a good example of Arrhenius base. An Arrhenius base is actually a substance that releases a hydroxyl ion in water.
Hey there,
Your answer would be
