https://padlet.com/henrykuteesa/q8blbdpi7dm0pvi7 State the trend in atomic radius and ionization energy down a group and across a period Explain why. en-us 2020-10-04 06:33:30 UTC 2025-12-02 00:43:50 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/henrykuteesa/q8blbdpi7dm0pvi7/wish/800667005 - The atomic radius increases as you move down a group because the energy levels also increase which means each energy level is further away from the nucleus than the last. However, as you move across the period, the atomic radius decreases because the electrons are being added to the same energy level which creates a stronger attraction pulling the electrons to the nucleus.

- Ionization Energy increases across the period as the valence electrons of the atom are increasing. The ionization energy also increases down the group due to the screening effect.]]> 2020-10-04 10:05:34 UTC https://padlet.com/henrykuteesa/q8blbdpi7dm0pvi7/wish/800667005 https://padlet.com/henrykuteesa/q8blbdpi7dm0pvi7/wish/800667287 Ionization energy increases from left to right in a period and decreases from top to bottom in a group, because there will be more electrons blocking the way of the attraction with the outer electrons and across a period the attraction gets stronger since the atomic radius increases.
Atomic radius increases as you move down a group and decreases as it goes across a period, because the attraction gets weaker as it goes across the period and the attraction gets stronger as you go down a group.]]> 2020-10-04 10:05:51 UTC https://padlet.com/henrykuteesa/q8blbdpi7dm0pvi7/wish/800667287 https://padlet.com/henrykuteesa/q8blbdpi7dm0pvi7/wish/800667326 Ionization increases across a period and decreases down a group. it is easier for valence electrons to ionize across the period.
Atomic radius increases down a group and decreases across a period. every energy level is gets further away as we move down a group meaning the atomic radius will increase.

Ionization energy: 
Down a period- increasing nuclear charge, electrons added to the same level.

Down a group: increasing energy levels, screening/shielding effect.

Atomic Radius: The atomic radius of a chemical element is a measure of the size of its atoms, usually the mean or typical distance from the center of the nucleus to the boundary of the surrounding shells of electrons.

Ionization energy increases when we go across the period put it decreases when we go down a group because because the electrons are held in lower energy orbitals, closer to the nucleus and therefore are more tightly bound (harder to remove)]]> 2020-10-04 10:07:36 UTC https://padlet.com/henrykuteesa/q8blbdpi7dm0pvi7/wish/800668775 https://padlet.com/henrykuteesa/q8blbdpi7dm0pvi7/wish/800668810 Atomic Radius - increases as you move down a group and decrease down moving left to right across a period.
Ionization energy - increases as you move across a period and decrease while moving down a group.
