There is a general trend in the ionization energies that says that the ionization energies increase as you go up a column on the periodic table and it increases as you go from left to right in a row.  Which of the following statements are correct?  Mark all correct answers.   Question 7 options:   Atoms that have a filled or half-filled sub shell of valence electrons are slightly harder to ionize than the trend would indicate and actually violate the trend above.   The columbic attraction of Calcium is greater than that of Chlorine and that's why the ionization trend is what it is.   The trend of increasing ionization energy across the row is because the atomic core charge is increasing as you go from left to right.   The increasing ionization in a column of atoms happens because, according to Coulomb's Law, Force is inversely proportional to distance squared.   The size of the atom is dependent on how many valence electrons the atom has because the electrons repel each other and swell the orbitals as there are more of them.

Question

There is a general trend in the ionization energies that says that the ionization energies increase as you go up a column on the periodic table and it increases as you go from left to right in a row.  Which of the following statements are correct?  Mark all correct answers.

 

Question 7 options:

 

Atoms that have a filled or half-filled sub shell of valence electrons are slightly harder to ionize than the trend would indicate and actually violate the trend above.

 

The columbic attraction of Calcium is greater than that of Chlorine and that's why the ionization trend is what it is.

 

The trend of increasing ionization energy across the row is because the atomic core charge is increasing as you go from left to right.

 

The increasing ionization in a column of atoms happens because, according to Coulomb's Law, Force is inversely proportional to distance squared.

 

The size of the atom is dependent on how many valence electrons the atom has because the electrons repel each other and swell the orbitals as there are more of them.
