Question

Choose the element with the larger atoms from each of the following pairs: al or in?

1) al
2) in

Answer 1

Indium (In) has larger atoms compared to Aluminum (Al).

Step-by-step explanation:

The element with larger atoms in the given pair, Al or In, is In (Indium).

The atomic radius generally decreases from left to right across a period and increases from top to bottom in a group in the periodic table.

Indium is located below Aluminum in the periodic table, so it has larger atoms compared to Aluminum.
