16
Q

Which ions are bigger - - cations and anions?

A

Anions are bigger because they gain electrons

17
Q

Why are the outermost electrons of an atom easier to remove?

A

The electrons are farther away from the nucleus and don’t feel the pull of the nucleus

18
Q

Explain why the atomic trend for atomic radii “decreases as you go left to right across a period?”

A

The pull of the nucleus gets more and more positive as you go across a period, pulls the electrons closer

19
Q

What is the difference between electronegativity and ionization energy?

A

Electronegativity is the ability of atoms to attract electrons to themselves - - ionization energy is the energy required to remove one electron from an atom’s shell

20
Q

How are ions created?

A

Cations are created by losing an electron and so it loses a negative charge and becomes postitive

Anions are created by gaining an electron so it gain a negative charge and becomes negative
