What happens to atomic radius as you move down a group in the periodic table?

Back

Atomic radius increases because you add more and more shells (energy levels).

Front

Which element has a lower ionization energy than Scandium (Sc)?

Back

Calcium (Ca) has a lower ionization energy than Scandium.

Front

Define electronegativity.

Back

Electronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract/accept electrons.

Front

Which atom has the largest atomic radius: potassium, rubidium, francium, or cesium?

Back

Francium has the largest atomic radius.

Front

Which element would want to keep its electrons the most: O, S, Al, or Rb?

Back

Oxygen (O) would want to keep its electrons the most.

Front

What is the trend in ionization energy as you move across a period from left to right?

Back

Ionization energy generally increases as you move from left to right across a period.

Front

What is the trend in electronegativity as you move down a group?

Back

Electronegativity generally decreases as you move down a group.

Front

What is the relationship between atomic size and metallic character?

Back

As atomic size increases, metallic character increases.

Front

What is the trend in atomic radius as you move across a period?

Back

Atomic radius generally decreases as you move from left to right across a period.

Front

What is the effect of increasing nuclear charge on ionization energy?

Back

Increasing nuclear charge generally increases ionization energy.
