3. the energy required to remove an electron from a neutral atom in its gaseous phase
5. If the valence shell of an atom is less than half full, it requires less energy to lose an electron than to gain one
7. The tendency of atoms to prefer to have eight electrons in the valence shell.
13. an atom's ability to attract and bind with electrons.
14. the radius of an atom forming ionic bond or an ion.
15. When two atoms of the same element are covalently bonded, the radius of each atom will be half the distance between the two nuclei because they equally attract the electrons

1. are specific patterns that are present in the periodic table that illustrate different aspects of a certain element, including its size and its electronic properties
2. is the amount of energy required to break a bond(s) to change the solid phase of a substance to a liquid
4. the ability of an atom's inner electrons to shield its positively-charged nucleus from its valence electrons
6. Which element has the largest atomic radius?
8. the ability of an atom to accept an electron
9. the most electronegative element
10. generally stated as being the total distance from an atom’s nucleus to the outermost orbital of electron
11. the least electronegative element
12. Which group of elements can be predicted to have the lowest second ionization energy?
