What pattern or trend do you notice between atomic radius and electronegativity energy?

In general, they are opposing. Electronegativity increases going left to right in a period and up in a group. Atomic radius decreases going left to right in a period and up in a group.


Is aluminum selenide ionic or covalent?

This compound is not ionic compound because the absolute difference in electronegativity between its both elements is less than 1.8. in ionic compounds the electronegativity difference should be more than 1.8 on pauling scale.
