Four Trends to Understand Atomic radius Ionization Energy Energy required to remove an electron from a gaseous atom or ion. Electron Affinity Energy change associated with the addition of an electron to a gaseous atom or ion. Electronegativity Ability of an atom in a molecule to attract shared electrons to itself.
