What patterns do you notice as you move down the groups on the Periodic Table?

Answer 1

As the orientation goes down, the elements become more solid. :-)

Answer 2

As you move down the groups on the Periodic Table, you generally observe an increase in the number of electron shells, leading to an increase in atomic size. Additionally, there is a trend of increasing reactivity in alkali metals and decreasing reactivity in noble gases as you move down a group. The ionization energy often decreases as you move down a group due to the increase in atomic size and shielding effect.

Answer 3

- the atomic weight increase
- the atomic radius increase
- the electronegativity decrease (excepting groups 6-12)
- the ionization energy decrease
