Atomic Radius
Average distance in an atom between
the nucleus and the outermost electron
Atomic Size Trend
Atomic Size increases down a group
Why larger going down?
Adding more energy levels.
Atomic Size decreases across a period
Why smaller across?
 Increased nuclear charge (more
protons) without additional energy levels
pulls e- in closer.

Ionization Energy
Ionization energy is the amount of energy
needed to remove an electron.
M + energy  M+1 + eElectrons that are close to the nucleus
are hard to remove because they are
under a strong force of attraction
Ionization Energy Trend
Ionization Energy Increases across a period
Why? Valence electrons experience a greater
nuclear force because they are closer to the
nucleus.
Smaller atoms have higher Ionization energy.
Ionization Energy Decreases down a group.
Why? Valence electrons removed are farther
from the nucleus because they are in higher
energy levels. So not held as tightly.
Bigger atoms have lower Ionization energy.
Ionization Energy Trends
Why opposite of atomic radius?
In small atoms, e- are close to the
nucleus where the attraction is stronger
Small atoms have High IE
Big Atoms have Low IE

Which would have a higher Ionization
energy, Sodium or Chlorine?
Chlorine is higher.
Chlorine is smaller and has a higher
nuclear charge (more protons) = stronger
hold on electron = higher energy to take it
away.
Also, remember – Na wants to lose an electron
(it is a metal) and Cl wants to gain an electron
(non-metal)
Electronegativity
The ability of an atom to attract an
electron.
The smaller the atom, the more
electronegative it is because of a greater
nuclear force. (greater coulombic
attraction as distance between nucleus
and electron is shorter.
Electronegativity Trends
Electronegativity Increases across a period.
Why? Non-metals such as F, O and N want more
electrons to complete their valence shell.
Smaller atoms have greater nuclear charge and
thus, more force to attract electrons.
Exception: Noble gases are not included
because they generally do not want to gain
electrons. They are already stable.
Electronegativity Trends
Electronegativity Decreases Down a Group
Why? Atomic size increases and valence
electrons are farther from the nucleus.
More energy levels increases shielding. So
the pull from the positive nuclear charge is less.
In General:
Non-Metals have high Electronegativities
Metals have low Electronegativities

Ionic Radius
Ionic Radius
Cations (+ ions) the ionic radius is
smaller than the original atom.
Why? There is an increased
attraction for the fewer electrons that
remain.
Na  Na+
Ionic Radius
For Anions (– ions) the ionic radius is
larger than the original atom.
Why? The nuclear attraction is less for
an increased number of electrons.
Extra electrons repel each other and
spread out – larger!)
Cl  Cl-1
