Drag and Drop

The atomic radius ​ decreases from left to right across a ​ period. This is because the number of ​
in the nucleus are increasing causing the nucleus to have a greater effective ​
; at the same time the electrons are being added to the ​
and therefore there ​
allowing for the attraction between the nucleus and the electrons to ​
resulting in a smaller atom.

Drag and Drop

The atomic radius ​ increases from top to bottom down a group. Even though the number of​
in the nucleus is increasing causing the nucleus to have a greater nuclear ​ charge, the electrons are being added to ​
causing a(n)
thus the attraction between the nucleus and the outer electrons ​
thus the size of the atom ​

The ioniziation energy ​increases as you move ​left to right across a period . The part of the atom that holds the electrons in place is the ​
due to it being ​
and the electrons being negatively charged. When moving across a period the electrons are being added to ​
thus there is​ ​
causing a greater attraction between the nucleus and the electrons resulting in ​
from the atom.

Drag and Drop

The ionization energy decreases as you go down a group on the periodic table. This is due to the fact that the valence electrons are being placed on ​
which cause them to become ​
the nucleus thus causing a decrease in the ​
resulting in ​
being required to remove an electron from an atom in the bottom of a group than an electron of an atom ​

Drag and Drop

The electronegativity of an element represents the ability of an atom ​​
. The trend in electronegativity as you move from left to right across a period is that the electronegativity increases. This is due to the fact that the radius of the atom has ​ ​
causing there to be ​​
between the nucleus and the outer parts of the atom. As the distance between the nucleus and the outer part of the atom ​ ​decrease the ability for the nucleus to attract electrons ​
