Reading the periodic table

Period 3 row from sodium to argon labelled s-block and p-block, with arrows showing increasing nuclear charge, decreasing atomic radius, generally increasing first ionisation energy, and increasing electronegativity to chlorine

Periodicity is the repeating pattern in properties when elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number. The regular pattern comes from regular changes in electron configuration.
