53
Q

periodicity

A

prediction of elements reactivity based on location in periodic table

54
Q

True/False: the higher the group number, the less likely they are to react

A

True: The higher the group number the more the electron shell is filled up, the more filled up the shell, the less reactive they are

55
Q

What happens when electrons are added

A

attraction to the nucleus increases, electrons become more compact, less likely to be pulled away in reactions
