Q

trend in boiling + melting point

A

increases down group
molecules get larger = more electrons
=larger van der waals between molecules
larger intermolecular force = more energy needed to break forces

7
Q

trend in electronegativity

A

decreases down group
atomic radii increases down group as no. of shells increase
= nucleus less able to attract bonding pair of electrons

increasing power
ions bigger, outer electrons further from positive nucleus
extra inner electrons provide shielding
