metal -->nonmetal --> gaseous (metal --> nonmetal --> metalloid)


How does the atomic number change in a period?

When going left to right across a period, the atomic number of element increases.


How do the number of protons change as atomic number increases by one?

the number of protons change because of the more protons you add on


What happens to the number of electrons in an atom when the atomic number increases?

When the atomic number increases, the number of protons in the nucleus also increases. Since atoms are electrically neutral, the number of electrons in the atom would also increase to match the number of protons, maintaining a balanced charge.


How does the atomic number of a nucleus change when beta decay occurs?

The atomic number increases by one unit when a beta decay occurs.


The atomic number increases but the atomic mass stays the same?

The atomic number increases but the atomic mass stays the same after the emission of a beta particle by a radioactive atom.


How does the atomic number change across a column of the periodic table?

Columns are vertical, so you are referencing a group of elements. The atomic number increases as you descend from top to bottom. Rows are horizontal, which references the periods. The atomic number increases as you go from right to left.


What physical trends for atomic number versus covalent radius?

As the atomic number increases within a period (row) on the periodic table, the covalent radius generally decreases due to increasing nuclear charge pulling the electrons closer to the nucleus. Within a group (column), as the atomic number increases, the covalent radius tends to increase since new electron shells are being added, leading to a larger atomic size.


How does atomic radius increases in the periodic table?

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


How do elements change going down the periodic table?

Down a group, the atomic number generally increases, size increases, ionization energy decreases, reactivity increases.


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.


How is the atomic number of a nucleus change is it by alpha decay or beta decay or gamma decay?

Alpha decay decreases the atomic number by two. Beta- decay increases the atomic number by one. Beta+ decay decreases the atomic number by one. Gamma decay does not change the atomic number. However, gamma decay is often incidental to a precipitating alpha or beta event that upsets the energy equilibrium in the nucleus, so the two are not unrelated.
