Q

why does ionization energy increase left to right? down to up?

A

because atoms towards the right do not want to gain electrons, they want to lose
because the electrons are held in lower-energy orbitals, closer to the nucleus and therefore are more tightly bound (harder to remove).

11
Q

why does electronegativity increase down to up and left to right

A

This occurs due to a greater charge on the nucleus, causing the electron bonding pairs to be very attracted to atoms placed further right on the periodic table

Q

what is the atomic radii trend

why

A

increases up to down(valence electron is occupying higher energy level/n value increases making radius larger), increases right to left (number of protons increases (nuclear charge) pulling the electrons in tighter making the radius smaller

Q

what is electronegativity

A

holding onto its own electrons and taking other ones

28
Q

what is the metallic trend

A

increases up to down, right to left

29
Q

the number of available electrons is equal to the _____________

A

number of valence electrons of the atom
