electronegativity
A measure of the ability of an atom in a chemical compound to attract electrons
atomic radius
Size of an atom; Specifically: one-half the distance between the nuclei of two atoms of the same element when the atoms are joined
metallic character trend
based on ionization energy; increases down a group; decreases across a period
ionization energy trend
decreases down a group, increases across a period
electronegativity trend

atomic radius trend
increases down a group, decreases across a period
periodic law
the law that states that the repeating chemical and physical properties of elements change periodically with the atomic numbers of the elements
