Answer:

Atomic size decreases on going along a period from left to right because the electron enters into the same shell, therefore, attraction between nucleus and outermost electron increases and thus atomic size decreases. Valency first increases from 1 to 4 and then decreases from 4 to GO along a period from left to right.
