f. ionization energy
g. transition metal
h. electronegativity
i. period
j. electrons

Explanation:

1. A horizontal row in the periodic table is called a period.
2. A vertical column in the periodic table is called a group.
3. The periodic law states that a repetition of properties occurs when elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number.
4. Metals are good conductors of heat and electric current.
5. Transition metals are characterized by the presence of electrons in the d orbital.
6. Atomic radius is one - half the distance between the nuclei of two atoms when the atoms are joined.
7. Mendeleev arranged the periodic table based on atomic mass.
8. Electrons are the subatomic particles that are transferred to form positive and negative ions.
9. Electronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract electrons when the atom is in a compound.
10. Ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from an atom.

Answer:

1. i. period
2. b. group
3. c. periodic law
4. a. metal
5. g. transition metal
6. e. atomic radius
7. d. atomic mass
8. j. electrons
9. h. electronegativity
10. f. ionization energy
