Question 1: c
The atomic radius increases with the atomic numbers within a given row in the periodic table. Therefore opiton c shows the decreasing atomic numbers from the left to right, so the atomic radius decreases from Ar, P, Si, Mg, to Na.
Question 2: d
the further away from the atomic nucleus, the lower effective nuclear charge the subshell experiences. 5p is the furthest subshell among those above choices, hence it experiences the lowest effective nuclear ...
