Trends
 

1.  predict the trends in the periodic table (atomic size, ionization energy, electronegativity, ionic size) for a group of elements. That is, order them low to high.

Cd, Zn, Hg                  

As, Sn, F, S, Se

2.  Define the terms electron shielding and nuclear charge and explain the trends in electron shielding and nuclear charge.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       
3.  State the trends in electronegativity, ionization energy, atomic radius.
4.  Explain why cations and anions differ in size from the neutral atoms.
5. 

For the following molecules, draw the Lewis structure, give the molecular shape, polarity, and bond angles.
