#1

Which of the following elements has the highest electronegativity?

Chlorine
Explanation

Electronegativity increases towards fluorine in the periodic table.

#2

What is the trend in atomic radius as you move from left to right across a period in the periodic table?

Decreases
Explanation

Atomic radius decreases due to increased effective nuclear charge.

#3

Which of the following elements has the highest ionization energy?

Aluminum
Explanation

Aluminum has high ionization energy due to its relatively small atomic size.

#4

What is the general trend of electronegativity as you move down a group in the periodic table?

Decreases
Explanation

Electronegativity decreases down a group due to increasing atomic size.

#5

What is the trend in electron affinity as you move from left to right across a period in the periodic table?

Increases
Explanation

Electron affinity increases due to stronger attraction for added electrons.

#6

Which of the following elements has the smallest atomic radius?

Rubidium
Explanation
