What do most of the elements on the left of the periodic table have in common

As we move from left to right across the periodic table, what is the general trend? a) atomic radii increase. b) electronegavitiy decreases. c) nuclear shielding increases. d) metallic character decreases.

For questions 1 and 2, consider the following experimental data.hydrogen emission lines were detected at the following wavelengths (in nm): 121.6102.697.395.093.8question 1use the electromagnetic radiation classifications below and figure 1-1 in the introductory information for this lab (in the lab manual) to determine the nf value for the experimental data provided? wavelength, ? (nm) 650 700 550 600 400 450 500 visible spectrum wavelength, ? (m) 11 10 3 10 10 10 8 10 5 10 10 -10 10 9 10 10 10 10 -12 10 microwave radio infrared x-ray ultraviolet gamma 1020 1019 1018 1 1016 015 1014 01 12 109108 frequency, v (hz)a.1b. 2c. 3d. 4e. 5question 2using the data for the emission line with the longest wavelength, the known value of nf (from question 1 in this prelab), and the value of ni (deduced from the ? and nf values) calculate the rydberg constant for hydrogen (rh) in units of m-1.a) 1.097 x 10-11 m-1b) 5.921 x 107 m-1c) 1.097 x 10-2 m-1d) 9.252 x 106 m-1e) 1.097 x 107 m-1

Can anyone answer these questions? ? i need it before 1: 00pm today
