Periodic trends II: ionization energy and electronegativity — Homework

Name the trend and its direction before giving each answer.

  1. 1.Which has higher ionization energy, fluorine or bromine (same group)?
  2. 2.Which has higher electronegativity, carbon or oxygen (same period)?
  3. 3.Which has greater metallic character, calcium or bromine (same period)? Why?
  4. 4.Explain why fluorine sits at the extreme of both the ionization energy trend and the electronegativity trend.
  5. 5.Explain why metallic character runs opposite to electronegativity across the periodic table.
