Explain the periodic trend for ionization energy and why this occurs?

Ionization energy tends to increase across a period because the nuclear pull is increasing while shielding is not changing because electrons are in the same energy level. Not only that as we move across a period elements are closer to a full octet.

Explanation:

for step 7 table c on the lab "newtons law of action"   the average time it took the car to travel .25 meters   was 1.92 seconds.
