electron from an atom.
$100 Answer from Trends
Ionization Energy
$200 Question from Trends
What happens to atomic
radius going across the
periodic table from left to
right. Why?
$200 Answer from Trends
Decreases because of
the increased nuclear
charge.

Third (3d)
$400 Question from PT
What problems did
Mendeleev have when he
constructed his Periodic
Table?
$400 Answer from PT
Ge hadn’t yet been discovered,
so he left a place for it
Some elements (potassium, for
example) did not “fit”
according to their atomic mass
