Why do electronegativity and ionization energy increase as you move across a period from left to right?
the increasing number of protons causes a greater electromagnetic attraction between the protons & electrons, making it more difficult to remove electrons

Ionization energy (increases or decreases) as you move down a group/family and (increases or decreases) as you move across a period from left to right.
Ionization energy DECREASES as you move down a group/family and INCREASES as you move across a period from left to right.
