As you move down a column (group) in the Periodic Table, the electronegativity decreases, the ionization energy decreases, the electron affinity decreases, and the atomic radius increases.

How the density properties generally change as you go down the columns of the periodic table?
The density properties generally change as you go down the columns of the Periodic Table by increasing.
How many up and down rows does the periodic table have?
The periodic table has 7 rows and 32 columns.
What are the columns going up and down on the periodic table called?
It is called a group
How the melting temperature properties generally change as you go down the columns of the periodic table?
The melting temperature properties generally change as you go down the columns of the Periodic Table by decreasing for metals and increasing for non-metals.
What are the rows of a periodic table called?
As with any grid, the periodic table has rows running left to right, and columns running up and down. The rows are called PERIODS and the columns are called GROUPS.
What happens to the atomic radius as you move down the periodic table?
Down a group, the atomic radius increases as the number of shells or energy levels increases.
Which direction are families on the periodic table?
groups on the periodic table are the vertical coumns that go up and down. A period on the periodic table are the rows that go horizontal or across.
What happens to elements as you move down the periodic table?
they do something
When you go down the periodic table what happens to the electronegativity?
Increase -tac
What is a period in a periodic table?
a row going acrossNOT to be confused with groups or families which go down in columns and have to do with valence electrons
How are groups on a periodic table numberd?
From right to left (1- 18) on the periodic table. Instead of up and down (1-7) periods go vertically. (rows) groups go horizontally. (columns)
What is the difference between a period and a group on the periodic table?
Periods on the periodic table go across and are based on the number of unexcited electrons increasing as you read across. Groups on the periodic table are read down the table and share the same number of valence electrons.
