The largest element in a Period (row) will be on the right of that Period (i.e. an inert gas). The largest element in a Group (column) will be at the bottom of that group.
Examples;
Helium is larger than Hydrogen (Period 1)
Krypton is larger than Potassium (Period 3)
Francium is larger than Lithium (Group 1)
Ununquadium is larger than Carbon (Group 3)

To find the largest element in a row, you can iterate through the elements of that row and keep track of the largest value encountered. To find the largest element in a column, you can iterate through the elements of that column and similarly keep track of the largest value encountered. Remember to handle edge cases such as empty rows or columns.
The element in row 8 (period 8) with the largest atomic radius is oganesson (Og). Oganesson is a synthetic element and is located at the bottom of the periodic table, hence it has the largest atomic radius among the elements in that row.
Cesium (Cs), atomic number 55, has the largest atomic radius in period 6.Only francium (row 7) may be larger, but testing is difficult because francium does not exist in any meaningful amounts (maybe 30 g on the entire Earth).
In the Periodic Table, a group is a column of elements and a period is a row. The element in the 14th column and fourth row is germanium.
It is the rubidium metal. it is in the first group.
In the same column (group) but in a row below the chemical you start with.
