Atomic Radius
Distance between outermost shell and centre of nucleus.
Three types of atomic radius (a) covalent radius (b) Vander Waal’s
radius (c) Metallic crystal radius
Half of the distance between the centre of nucleic of two
atoms bonded by single covalent bond.
Vander Waal’s Radius
Half of the inter nuclear distance between the two non bonded
atoms of two neighbouring molecules
Metallic / Crystal radius
Half of the inter nuclear distance between two adjacent
atoms in the crystal lattice.

Factors affective IE
1) Atomic size 2) Screening effect 3) Nuclear charge 4) Penetration effect:
IE of orbitals s > p > d > f
Screening effect is the decrease in the attraction between outer most e and nucleus
due to the presence of inner e-s.
Electron Affinity (Electron gain enthalpy)
The amount of energy released when an isolated gaseous atom picks up an e- to
form anion in the ground state.
