How the size of atoms and ions, the ionisation enthalpy, the electron gain enthalpy and the electronegativity change across a period and down a group, and how they decide valence and reactivity.
Why does carbon make four bonds and oxygen two? Why is a sodium atom bigger than a chlorine atom? In this course we find the valency, the size, the metallic character and the oxides of the elements, and how they change across a period and down a group.
