Question

How does metallic character change when we move
i. Down a group
ii. Across a period?

Answer 1

"Metallic character decreases asyou move across a period in the periodic table from left to right. This occurs as atoms more readily accept electrons to fill a valence shell than lose them to remove the unfilled shell. Metallic character increases as you move down an element group in the periodic table."
