Some patterns and trend that are present in the periodic table would be
1. electronegativity (from left-to-right it increases across the table)
2. ionization (from left-to right it increases and from bottom-to-top it increases)
3. electron affinity (same as ionization energy)
4. atom radius (increases opposite way; from right-to-left it increases and from top-to-bottom it increases)
5. melting point (higher melting points with metals and lower melting point with non-metals)
6. metallic character (same as atom radius)
Its on Google..."The group number of a representative element in the periodic table is related to the number of valence electrons it has. ... Elements of the halogen family lose one electron to become halide ions."
Answer:
Explanation:
The net force on electron is electrostatic force between electron and proton in the nucleus .
Fc = 
This provides the centripetal force for the circular path of electron around the nucleus .
Centripetal force required = 
So



An anion has a negative charge, while a cation has a positive charge.
D is the correct answer... if u need in depth let me know
