Chemistry Periodic Table Trends (Across a period)
This post is about Chemistry Periodic Table Trends (Across a period). Across a Period: Atomic size decreases, and electronegativity and ionization energy increase. Trends:Across a Period: Atomic size decreases, and electronegativity and ionization energy increase.Down a Group: Atomic size increases, and electronegativity and ionization energy decrease. Atomic Size Decreases Across a Period:Reason: As you move…
