Both the atomic number and Atomic Mass. among many other things. They increase the atomic number because the atomic number IS the number of protons in an atom. They increase the atomic mass because the atomic mass is the number of protons + neutrons in an atom. Basically the main two things..

How much does the atomic number increase bye as you go across a row on the periodic table?

The atomic number increases by one as you go across a row on the periodic table. Each element in the row has one more proton in its nucleus than the previous element, which is reflected in the increase in atomic number. This trend continues across each row of the periodic table.


Why does electronegativity increase as you move across a period in the periodic table?

Electronegativity increases as you move across a period in the periodic table because the number of protons in the nucleus increases, leading to a stronger attraction for electrons in the outer shell.


Which way does electron shells increase on the periodic table?

The number of shells in periodic table increase down the group, i.e., vertically.


What do you notice about the number of enery level or shells as you move down a group or column in the periodic table?

As you move down a group or column in the periodic table, the number of energy levels or shells increases. Each row in the periodic table represents a different energy level, with elements in the same row having the same number of electron shells.


As you move down a group or family on the periodic table which of the following isnt true?

As you move down a group or family on the periodic table: The number of energy levels increases (true). The atomic radius increases (true). The number of valence electrons remains the same (not true - the number of valence electrons increases as you move down a group).

What increases on the periodic table?

The atomic number increases. The atomic number identifies a particular element and the elements are arranged in increasing order on the periodic table. Also, the atomic weight generally increases as well.


What increses in the periodic table?

As you move from left to right across a period in the periodic table, the atomic number increases. This means there is an increase in the number of protons in the nucleus of the atoms. Additionally, as you move down a group or family in the periodic table, the number of energy levels or electron shells increases.


What happendS to atomic radius as u go down the periodic taBLE?

the atomic radius increases down the periodic table as the number of shell (or energy level) increases.


When moving across a period in the periodic table?

The atomic number increases


How do elements changes as you across the periodic table?

the number of protons increases


What happens to the atomic mass number as you move across the periodic table?

The atomic mass number generally increases as you move across the periodic table from left to right. This is because the number of protons in the nucleus increases as you move to elements with higher atomic numbers.


What happens to the atomic radius as you move down the periodic table?

Down a group, the atomic radius increases as the number of shells or energy levels increases.


How does atomic radius increases in the periodic table?

atomic radius increases down a group as the number of shells increases


What is the atomic number of the element to the right of the periodic table?

The atomic number increases one-by-one stepping to the right (within a specific period) in the periodic table.


What happens to the mass number as you move from left to right in the periodic table?

It increases


What major change occurs as you move left to right on the periodic table?

As you move left to right on the periodic table, the number of valence electrons an element has increases. The number of valence electrons an element has corresponds to which group (column) an element is. (This rule does not apply to transition metals...)


What happens to the atomic size from the top to the bottom of the periodic table?

The atomic size increase from top to bottom of periodic table. As the number of shells increases from top to bottom, the atomic size increases.
