Understand the periodic trends such as atomic radius, ionization energy, electron affinity, and electronegativity across the periodic table and their variations based on atomic structure.
Periodic Trends Atomic Radius: Decreases across a period due to increasing nuclear charge pulling electrons closer. Increases down a group as new energy levels are added, increasing the distance between the nucleus and outer electrons. Ionization Energy: Increases across a period due to stronger nuclear charge holding electrons more tightly. Decreases down a group as electrons are further f...…
