2022: Atomic Radius of Krypton (Kr) [& State, Uses, Discovery ...

All atoms have a (theoretical) atomic radius, even Krypton. Ok, so what is the atomic radius of an atom of Kr?

Note: Learn more about the atomic radius here.

In the case of Krypton the atomic radius is 1.03 Å. There are cool facts about Krypton that most don't know about. Let me show you...
