Concept:
- Atomic radius: It is the distance from the center of the nucleus to the outermost shell containing electrons.
- Ionization energy: It is the energy required in removing an electron from an atom.
- Electron Affinity: It is the energy change of the atom when an electron is added to a neutral gaseous atom to form a negative ion.

- Ionization energy increases on going from left to right and from down to top.
- Electron affinity increases on going from left to right and from down to top.
- The atomic radius increases from right to left and top to bottom.
- Hence only statement (ii) is true only.
