What is the general trend in atomic radius as you move down a group in the periodic table?

It increases due to the addition of more energy levels.

What is the primary reason for the decrease in atomic radius as you move across a period in the periodic table?

Increase in nuclear charge.

What is the general trend in ionization energy as you move down a group in the periodic table?

It decreases due to the increased atomic size and shielding effect.

What is the general trend in electron affinity as you move across a period in the periodic table?

It increases due to the increase in nuclear charge.

What is the relative size of a cation compared to its parent atom?

It is smaller.

What is the primary factor that affects the atomic radius as you move across a period in the periodic table?

Nuclear charge.

What is the general trend in ionization energy as you move across a period in the periodic table?

It increases due to the increase in nuclear charge.

What is the relative size of an anion compared to its parent atom?

It is larger.

What is the primary factor that affects the ionization energy as you move down a group in the periodic table?

Shielding effect.

What is the general trend in electron affinity for noble gases?

It shows irregularities.

This quiz covers the patterns of element properties in the periodic table, including atomic radius, electronegativity, and ionization energy. Understand how these trends vary across periods and groups to predict element behavior.
