Front

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

Back

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

Front

What is the relationship between atomic radius and ionization energy?

Back

Generally, as atomic radius increases, ionization energy decreases.
