| Ionization Energy increases as you...... | go diagonally up (from left to right across periodic table) more energy is required to remove electron because of fewer shells; nucleus acts a gravity, has stronger hold on electrons start from Fr go diagonally up to F |
| this group is not included in ionization energy | noble gases |
| Atomic Size increases as you | go diagonally down (from right to left across the period table) everything is getting pulled way from nucleus due to increase of valence shells |
