Major periodic trends include: electronegativity, ionization energy, electron affinity, atomic radius, melting point, and metallic character. Periodic trends, arising from the arrangement of the periodic table, provide chemists with an invaluable tool.

The more negative the electron affinity value, the higher the electron affinity and the more easily an electron is added to an atom. Electron affinity can be either positive or negative. The greater the negative value, the more stable the anion is. Electron affinity increases (becomes more negative) from left to right within a period. This is caused by the decreas

Electronegativity and bond strength influence the acidity, with acidic hydrides more common among nonmetals. Hydrides of electropositive metals like NaH and CaH2 act as bases. Acidity increases across a period due to increased electronegativity and polarization, and down a group due to weaker bonds.
