You are good at questions dude
. How does atomic radius change from top to bottom in a group in the periodic table?
It tends to increaseThe atomic radius increases down the group

Does fluorine tend to lose electrons?
Fluorine is a nonmetal. It is located in group 17 of the periodic table. It tends to obtain an electron to form the fluoride ion.Fluorine is the element with highest electronegativity. So it does not tend to lose electrons. It is in the 17th group of the periodic table.
What tends to gain electrons?
Elements on the right of the periodic table but not in group 0/8 tend to gain electrons. Those in group 7 tend to gain 1 electron and those in group 6 tend to gain 2.
. How does atomic radius change from top to bottom in a group in the periodic table?
It tends to increaseThe atomic radius increases down the group
What groups of elements on the periodic table tends to form ions?
Alkali metals group tends to form ions.They give single electron to gain positive charge.For example : Sodium give one electron to become Na+ ion.
Do elements in a group of the periodic table have similar characteristics?
Generally speaking yes; it breaks down a bit in the middle-right area, because as you go down the table the metallic character tends to become more pronounced, and (for example) bismuth and nitrogen are pretty dissimilar.
Where the elements in period 3 of the periodic table are considered from left to right the degree of nonmetalic character of each successive element tends to do what?
The nonmetallic character begin with silicon and increase to right.
Bonding between atoms on the left and right sides of the periodic table tends to be?
ionic
WHAT BEST STATES THE TREND IN ATOMIC RADIUS ACROSS THE PERIODIC TABLE?
As you move across the periodic table from left to right (across a period), the atomic radius of the elements tends to decrease.
Electron affinity tends to what?
Electron affinity is an elements' ability to attract electrons and is variable for each element. Generally the more electronegative atoms are furthest to the right bottom of the periodic table and ascending to the left the elements lose their electron accepting ability.
