Why does atomic radii decrease as you move from the left to right across the period

When we move from left to right across the periodic table, we can see that the atomic radii keeps decreasing. This is because, as you move from left to right, the nucleus gains protons. The atomic number increases and hence the valence electron will feel more attracted towards the nucleus & the atomic radii will decrease.

b) mutualism

hope this : )
