A. Atomic Radius: the distance from the center of the nucleus to the outer most electrons in an atom Inc/dec as you move across a row (left to right) on the periodic table

Inc/dec as you move down a family (top to bottom) on the periodic table

B Ionic Radius: the distance from the center of the nucleus to the outer most electrons in an ion

Cations: loses/gains outer electrons, are _smaller/larger than the atom it forms from

Anions: loses/gains electrons, are _ smaller/larger than the atom it forms from
