Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

If lithium (Li) has an atomic radius of 1.52 Å and sodium (Na) has an atomic radius of 1.86 Å, how does this support the trend of atomic size across period 2?

💡 Hint: Remember how the number of shells relates to atomic size.

Question 2

Predict the reactivity of bromine (Br) in comparison to chlorine (Cl) based on the periodic trends discussed, and explain why.

💡 Hint: Consider what happens to electron attraction as size increases.
