Answer 1

Atoms with the largest atomic radius are found in the bottom left corner of the periodic table. As you move down a group (column), the atomic radius increases due to the addition of electron shells. Additionally, as you move from right to left across a period (row), the atomic radius also increases due to decreased nuclear charge, which allows the outer electrons to be less tightly held. Therefore, the correct response is **the bottom left corner**.
