The atomic radius trend on the Periodic Table is as follows:
- Atomic radius increases down a column (or group)
- Atomic radius decreases across rows (or periods) from left to right
Looking at my Periodic Table, calcium, chromium, cobalt and copper are in that order from left to right in the same period, which simplifies things significantly.
Since these elements are in the same period, and given that we know atomic radius decreases across periods from left to right, we can see that calcium has the largest atomic radius.
