Team Alkali metals

atomic radii - is measured as half the distance between neighbouring nuclei.

ionic radius - is the radius of an atom's ion in ionic crystals structure. Although neither atoms nor
ions have sharp boundaries, they are sometimes treated as if they were hard spheres with radii such
that the sum of ionic radii of the cation and anion gives the distance between the ions in a crystal
lattice
The first ionization energy of an element is the energy required to remove one mole of electrons
from one mole of gaseous atoms.
Task
In group of 4 you are required to
Show the trend in atomic radii, ionic radius, first ionisation energy.
Explain the trend with examples.
Write the general statement for each trend.
