Why ionization energy decreases down the group and increases along a period?

Going down a group, the number of valence electrons remains the same, but these electrons get farther and farther away from the nucleus. Thus, they are not as tightly held and the ionization energy decreases. Moving from left to right along a period, the electrons are the same distance from the nucleus, but the number of protons are increasing in the nucleus, thus holding those electrons more tightly. Thus, the ionization energy increases.


What are families in the periodic table that share similar properties?

Some share the same amount of valence electrons. Some could be classified in the same group such as metals, Nonmetal, Metalloids.


Where on the periodic table are metalloids?

On the Periodic Table there is a zigzag line (staircase) running along group 13 to group 16. Metalloids are the elements along the staircase. The six elements commonly recognized as metalloids are boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony and tellurium.


Why aren't metalloids in the metal group?

Because they are neither metals nor non-metals


How many metalloids are in the carbon family?

there are two elements. those are tin and lead. Tin and lead are NOT metalloids. The two metalloids in group 14 (same group as Carbon) would be silicon (Si) and germanium (Ge).
