Front

What causes metallic bonds to form in metals?

Back

Metals 'want' to give up valence electrons.

Front

What is a horizontal row on the periodic table called?

Back

Period

Front

What happens to ionization energy as you move across a row on the periodic table?

Back

Ionization energy increases.

Front

What is electronegativity?

Back

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

Front

Why does atomic radius increase as you move down a group in the periodic table?

Back

You add more and more shells (energy levels).

Front

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

Back

Atomic radius decreases.

Front

What is the relationship between electronegativity and atomic size?

Back

As atomic size increases, electronegativity generally decreases.

Front

Define ionization energy.

Back

Ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from a specific atom.

Front

What is the trend of metallic character as you move down a group?

Back

Metallic character increases.

Front

What happens to the melting and boiling points of metals as you move across a period?

Back
