  • What do you notice about the size of atoms as we move down the periodic table?

  • As you move down an element group (column), the size of atoms increases. This is because each atom further down the column has more protons and neutrons and also gains an additional electron energy shell.

What is Ionization Energy

Ionization energy is the energy required to remove the outermost electron. A high ionization energy means it is hard to remove an electron, a low IE means it is easier to remove this electron

  • What do you notice about the size of atoms as we move to the right?


Moving from left to right across a period, the atomic radius decreases. The nucleus of the atom gains protons moving from left to right, increasing the positive charge of the nucleus and increasing the attractive force of the nucleus upon the electrons.

The atomic radius of main-group elements generally increases down a group because ________.

A) the number of protons increases, pulling electrons closer to the nucleus

B) The number of shells increases causing more shielding 

C) a decrease in shielding makes the atom larger

D) Atomic radius does not increase down a group

B) The number of shells increases causing more shielding

what is Electronegativity


Electronegativity is the ability of an atom to withdraw electrons in a bond. A high electronegativity means it can easily take up electrons in a bond.
