Cesium, which is in Group 1 of the periodic table, has the largest atoms. This is because as you move down a group, the atomic size generally increases due to the addition of more electron shells.
the reactivity of halogens goes on decreasing as we go down the group, because of increasing in atomic size of the respective element.
The reactivity of Group 7 halogens decreases as you move down the column from fluorine to iodine. This is because atomic size increases down the group, leading to weaker intermolecular forces of attraction between atoms. As a result, it becomes harder for the halogens to gain an extra electron and they become less reactive.
Thermal stability increases down a group because the atomic size increases, leading to weaker intermolecular forces and greater distance between atoms, making it harder for the atoms to come together and react. Additionally, the lower electronegativity of larger atoms down the group makes them less likely to form covalent bonds with other atoms, enhancing their thermal stability.
As you move down the periodic table in the noble gases, the atomic size generally increases. This is because the number of energy levels, or electron shells, increases down the group. With each additional energy level, the atomic radius expands, resulting in larger atoms.
atomic number increases
The size of the atoms increases as you move down the periodic table in group 7. This is because as you move down a group, additional energy levels are added, resulting in larger atomic size.
The size of atoms generally increases as you go down Group 1 in the periodic table. This is because the outermost electron shells are adding energy levels, leading to larger atomic radii.
Down a group, the atomic size (energy level / shells) increases.

No, chlorine is smaller in size compared to bromine. This is because as you move down a group in the periodic table, the atoms increase in size due to additional electron shells being added. Chlorine is above bromine in the same group (halogens) on the periodic table.
As you move down the periodic table in the noble gases, the atomic size generally increases. This is because the number of energy levels, or electron shells, increases down the group. With each additional energy level, the atomic radius expands, resulting in larger atoms.
As we move down the group, the melting point decreases.
As you go down Group 1, the atoms get bigger due to the addition of energy levels (shells) in which electrons can be found. This results in more electron-electron repulsions, causing the atoms to expand in size. Additionally, the increased number of electron shells further away from the nucleus leads to a larger atomic radius.
