Question

As element of group 1 on the periodic table are considered in order of increasing atomic radius, the ionization energy of each successive element generally, A. Decreases B. Remains the same C. Increases

Answer 1

Answer:

The ionization energy of each successive element generally decreases

Explanation:

The ionization energy increases in the periods of the periodic table and decreases in the groups. If the atom is very small, we will need a lot of energy to release the electron, while if the atom is larger the energy will be greater.

Answer 2

Answer:

the relative electronegativity increases, and the atomic radius decreases

Explanation:

Elements in Period 2 have atomic numbers ranging from 3 through 10. Look at Reference Table S. The electronegativity value increases while the atomic radius decreases for the elements of the second period with increasing atomic number.
