Thus, metals have positive electron affinities. In the Periodic Table, electron affinity increases (becomes more negative) from left to right in a period. Electron affinity decreases from top to bottom in a Group.
What trend in atomic radium do you see as you go down a group/family on the periodic table? What causes this trend? Ionization energy increases as you go to the right, because greater positive charge leads to greater attraction of the electrons. Circle the atoms in each pair that has the greater ionization energy:
