Due:
"How do periodic trends such as atomic radius, ionization energy, and electronegativity change across a period and down a group in the periodic table, and how do these trends influence the chemical behavior of elements?"
This week, you will explore periodic trends in atoms and elements. In your response, you should answer the following question:
To complete this assignment:
that address the question. Be sure to discuss each trend (atomic radius, ionization energy, and electronegativity) and explain how these properties vary both across a period (left to right) and down a group (top to bottom) on the periodic table.
of how these trends affect the behavior of specific elements or chemical reactions. You may discuss how elements in different groups of the periodic table react with each other or with other substances based on their periodic trends.
from a textbook, reliable website, or academic journal to support your explanation. Use proper citation in MLA or APA format.
Ensure your response is well-organized, demonstrates a strong understanding of periodic trends, and is written in your own words. Avoid simply copying information from your sources—explain and interpret the information based on your understanding of the topic.
