Answer:

Left to right and top to bottom

Step-by-step explanation:

On the periodic table, the properties repeat from left to right and from top to bottom.

Periodic properties have a pattern from the top to the bottom or down a group or family.

Also, across the period from left to right, they also show a repeating pattern.

  1. Certain properties increase from left to right and decreases from top to bottom. E.g. electronegativity.
  2. Also, some properties decreases from left to right and increases from top to bottom e.g. atomic radius.
