Question

As atomic number increases within Group 15 on the Periodic Table, atomic radius

Answer 1

Answer is: (2) increases, only.

The atomic radius of a chemical element is a measure of the size of its atom.

The atomic radius varies with increasing atomic number, but usually increases because of increasing of number of electrons.

Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), bismuth (Bi) and moscovium (Mc) are in group 15 of Periodic table. They have same number of valence electrons (five).

Nitrogen has smallest atomic number and smallest atomic radius.

Answer 2

As atomic number increases within group 15 on the periodic table, atomic radius increases only.
