Left to right are columns: rows go up to down!
Electronegativity increases to the right across a period and up a group.
The energy level generally remains the same in a period (as we move from left to right). Down a period, the energy level increases.
Electronegativity increases across a period (left to right).
The term chemical period refers to the periodic table of elements; a row of that table can be called a period. The periods follow a certain pattern starting with metals on the left, moving through nonmetals and ending at an inert gas on the right. That's why the table is said to be periodic.
A row of the periodic table is known as a period.Related Information:Across a period, you can see how the electrons fill the energy levels from the s sub-level to the p sub-level. The highest-filled energy levels correspond to the row, or period, number. Down a group, you can see how many valence electrons are present in the atoms of each element.
This row of chemical elements is a "period".
A column, also called group, is a vertical line on the periodic table.
Across a period, as we move from left to right, the electronegativity increases in the periodic table.
Reactivity of metals decreases from left to right in the specific period of theperiodic table.
Reactivity of metals decreases from left to right in the specific period of theperiodic table.
Reactivity of metals decreases from left to right in the specific period of theperiodic table.

On the Periodic Table of elements, electronegativity increases as you move left to right across a period.
