As you move from left to right on the periodic table, atomic size and electronegativity increase.
(Ionization energy increases from left to right on the periodic table, and electronegativity relates to ionization energy in that the higher the ionization energy, the higher the electronegativity.)
(Atomic radius increases from left to right on the periodic table due to the fact that electrons are gradually being added from left to right, meaning the amount of protons in the nucleus are increasing in order to keep the atom neutral, therefore atomic size/radius increases.)
Answer:
Atomic models are important because, they help us visualize the interior of atoms and molecules, and thereby predicting properties of matter.
Explanation:
We study the various atomic models in our course of study because, it is important for us to know, how did people come to the present concept of an atom. How did physics evolve from classical to quantum physics.
All these are important for us to know and thus, knowledge about various atomic models, their discoveries and drawbacks and finally improvements based on scientific evidence present at that time is important for us to understand the underlying theory very well.
Atoms of one element are converted to atoms of another element through transmutation or nuclear transmutation.
