Answer:
Strontium (St)
Explanation:
The atom that will have a larger radius than zinc is strontium, Sr.
Atomic radius is defined as the half of the inter-nuclear distance between two covalently bonded atoms of non-metallic elements or half of the distance between two nuclei in the solid state of metals.
- Across the period atomic radii decreases progressively due to the increase in nuclear charge.
- Down a group atomic radii increase progressively due to the successive shells of electrons being added.
- Since strontium satisfies the criteria, it has the larger atomic radius.
