which one is more important in determining the size of an atom?
for example - Berilium has a smaller radius than Lithium because it has a greater core charge, but what about Nitrogen vs Berilium? Nitrogen has a greater core charge, but it has electrons in the 2p subshell whereas Berilium only goes to 2s.
Thanks in advance
