The elements of 1 st period are hydrogen and helium.
a) Atomic size of hydrogen is larger then that of helium because atomic size decreases
across a period.
b) Ionisation energy of helium is larger than that of hydrogenbecause ionisation increases
across a period.
c) Electro positivity of hydrogen is higher than that of helium because it decreases across
the period. Electro negativity of helium is higher than that of hydrogen becauses it
increases across the period.
The elements of 17 th group are Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine.
a) Atomic size of Astatine is larger because it increases down the group.
b) Ionisation energy of Fluorine is higher because it decreases down the group.
c) Electro positivity of Astatine is higher as it increases down the group. Electro negativity
of fluorine as it decreases down the group.
