Apologies for raising this question again, but it has finally dawned on me that as the Tables of Elements give an average mass (i.e. for all isotopes of each element) as the Relative Atomic Mass for that element; then my question is -
Is the figure quoted for Atomic Radii also an average figure?
Note that none of the tables actually say that the radius is an average, I just wonder if I am suppose to make that connection myself. Given that the two measurements are always in different sections of the tables it seems to show a lack of clarity on the part of the authors.
