How do protons increase on the periodic table?
they increase left to right
When does the atomic radius of an atom increase?
the radius of an atom gets larger when moving left to right across the Periodic Table because elements gain protons and electrons- the increase in charge brings the atom radius in
When does the radius of an atom decreases or increases?
the radius of an atom gets larger when moving left to right across the periodic table because elements gain protons and electrons- the increase in charge brings the atom radius in
Moving across a period on the periodic table from left to right?
ionization energy
What number increases in the periodic table?
Both the atomic number and atomic mass. among many other things. They increase the atomic number because the atomic number IS the number of protons in an atom. They increase the atomic mass because the atomic mass is the number of protons + neutrons in an atom. Basically the main two things..
Does the atomic structure increases by one as you move left to right in the periodic table?
The number of protons and electrons increase by one from left to right.
What elements in a period on the periodic table become?
more metallic moving from left to right
What happens to the category of elements as you move left to right on the periodic table?
the number of collecting protons gets bigger.
What happens to the atomic radius when you go from left to right on the periodic table?
As a general rule, when moving left to right on the periodic table the atomic radius decreases due to increasing electromagnetic attraction of the nucleus to the electrons.
How do you determine the mass of an element?
The mass of an element is the sum of the protons and neutrons in an atom. It is usually listed right on the periodic table.
What increases in the periodic table?
From left to right, then top to bottom we have increasing numbers of protons (and in whole atoms also electrons).
What sub-atomic particle increases when you read the periodic table from left to right?
Protons increases by one as we move from one element to other, left to right.
