Group Trend

What is Group Trend?

A consistent change in a physical or chemical property as you move down a group of the Periodic Table. A trend statement is only complete when it names the direction of travel, the property, and the way that property changes, and it must carry a qualifier such as generally where the supplied data is not perfectly regular.

This definition is part of the The Periodic Table chapter in Cambridge O Level Chemistry.
