Question

Explain the electropositive nature of sodium and magnesium.

Answer 1

Answer:

the periodic table from left to right atomic size decreases. Since Mg comes after Na , Na is bigger than Mg.

Greater the size, greater will be the tendency to give the electrons. That is greater will be electropositivity
