In general, the property (magnitudes only) that shows an opposite trend in comparison

Question:

In general, the property (magnitudes only) that shows an opposite trend in comparison to other properties across a period is :

  1.  Ionization enthalpy

  2. Electronegativity

  3. Electron gain enthalpy

  4. Atomic radius


Correct Option: , 4

Solution:

On moving left to right along a period in the periodic table atomic radius decreases while electronegativity, electron gain enthalpy and ionisation enthalpy increases, along a period.
