ANSWER:Solution 114CQStep 1 of 5a.Here, we have to find the largest atomic size in Group 1A (1).Characteristics of Group 1A elements:Group 1A elements are called as alkali metals.They are not occur in free state.All these are soft metals and good conductors of electricity.Atomic size:It is the average distance between a nucleus and outermost electron.As you move down the group in the periodic table the atomic size increases. Therefore, Francium is the largest element in the group 1A._____________________________________________________________________________
