As you move from left to right across the Periodic Table, electronegativity increases, and as you move down the table electronegativity decreases.
What else can I help you with?
What is a trend seen on the period table?
"Electronegativity"
The periodic trend for electronegativity is similar to what other trend?
The trend for first ionization energy
What general trend in electronegativity do you note going down a group across a period?
going down a group, electronegativity decreases going across a period, electronegativity increases
What is the period trend for electronegativity?
As you move from left to right across the periodic table, electronegativity increases, and as you move down the table electronegativity decreases.
Does electronegativity increase in periodic trend?
Yes, as you move from left to right across the period.
Which property has a trend similar to that of electronegativity?
First ionization energy has a trend similar to that of electronegativity.
How does the electronegativity trend explain the first ionization energy trend?
The electronegativity trend and the first ionization energy trend both increase as you move from left to right across a period in the periodic table due to the increasing effective nuclear charge. Higher electronegativity indicates a stronger pull on electrons, making it harder to remove an electron, thus increasing the first ionization energy.
State the definition and trend for electronegativity?
Electronegativity is the ability for an atom to attract electrons. It is expressed in numeric values in Paulings (a unit named after a chemist). On the periodic table it increases from left to right across a period. It decreases down a group on the periodic table.
Which trend appear as the elements in period 3 are considered from left to right?
metallic character decreases, and electronegativity increases
What trend electronegativity do you see across period on the periodic table?
The trend as you move from left to right across a period in the periodic table, the electronegativity increases due to the stronger attraction that the atoms obtain as the nuclear charge increases. Moving down a group, the electronegativity decreases due to the longer distance between the nucleus and the valence electron shell, thereby decreasing the attraction, making the atom have less of an attraction for electrons or protons.
What other trend is similar to periodic trend for electronegativity?
The trend for first ionization energy
How does Electronegativity trend across the periodic table?
Electronegativity generally increases from left to right across a period and decreases down a group in the periodic table. This trend occurs because elements on the right side of the periodic table have a greater ability to attract electrons due to increased nuclear charge and effective nuclear charge.
