Answer» Ionization, together withatomicand ionic radius, electronegativity, electron affinity, and metallicity, follows a trend on the periodic table of elements. Ionization energy generallyincreasesmoving from left torightacross an element period (row). Electron affinityincreases upwardfor the groups and from left torightacross periods of a periodic table because the electrons added toenergylevels become closer to the nucleus, thus a stronger attraction between the nucleus and its electrons. |
