What happens to the atomic size of the elements as on goes from the top to the bottom of a group?

Atomic size decreases as one moves from bottom to top in a group. The elements get smaller because they have less stuff in them.


What happens to the group 1 elements as you go down the table?

As you go down group 1, the atomic number and atomic mass increase. Electronegtivity decreases and atomic radius increases.

Atomic mass


How are period and group trends in atomic radii are related to electron configuration?

The atomic radius decreases along the elements across a period. Along a group, there is an increment in the atomic radius of corresponding elements.

Do elements in the same group have the same atomic mass?

No.


Do elements in the same group have similar atomic numbers?

No. Elements in the same group have same number of valence electrons.


What happens to the reactivity of elements in a group labeled A as atomic numbers increase across period?

they become more reactive since you are moving from left to right on the periodic table, the elements in group 17 are the most reactive.
