Which of the following statements is true?
1. Electron affinity is a measure of the
amount of energy needed to remove an electron from an atom.
2. As electron affinity increases (becomes
increasingly negative), electronegativity decreases.
3. Electronegativity is a measure of the tendency of an atom tolose electrons.

radii for the same element.

Which of the following correctly rationalizes
the increase in atomic radii down and to the
left on the periodic table, based on what we
discussed in class?
1. None of these. Atomic radii increase up
and to the right.
2. Because the elements are easier to ionize, they have a largerelectronegativity, and
therefore their electron affinity is not suffi-
cient to reduce atomic radii.penwell (blp865) – HW 12 PeriodicTrends – thompson – (991918292) 2
3. Larger elements have an increasing proportion of d and forbitals, which are intrinsically larger than all of the s and porbitals.
4. As you move to the left across a period,
decreasing ENC means the outer electrons
are less tightly held and can move further
from the nucleus. As you move down a group,
the electrons occupy orbitals that are further
from the nucleus.
5. The elements are simply larger due to
more protons and neutrons.
6. The periodic table was set up to group
atoms by size to facilitate comparisons.

Why is it harder to remove an electron from
fluorine than from carbon, or, to put it another way, why are thevalence electrons of
fluorine more strongly bound than those of
carbon?
1. The valence electrons of both fluorine and
carbon are found at about the same distance
from their respective nuclei but the greater
positive charge of the fluorine nucleus attracts
its valence electrons more strongly.
2. Fluorine has more valence elctrons than
does carbon.
3. Carbon has a lower atomic mass than
does fluorine.
4. Fluorine has a nearly filled octet, which
is always more stable than a partially filled
octet.
5. The statement is false; it takes very nearly
the same energy to remove an electron from
(ionize) both elements.
