The radius trend and the ionization energy trend are exact
Chapter 12, Problem 12.104(choose chapter or problem)
The radius trend and the ionization energy trend are exact opposites. Does this make sense? Define electron affinity. Electron affinity values are both exothermic (negative) and endothermic (positive). However, ionization energy values are always endothermic (positive). Explain.
