Question

Non-metallic character of elements on moving from left to right across a period:
(a) decreases.
(b) increases
(c) remains same
(d) depends on the period.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Hence, the tendency of the element to lose electrons decreases, this result in decrease in metallic character. Furthermore, the tendency of an element to gain electrons increases with increases in effective nuclear charge, so non-metallic character increases on moving from left to right in a period.

Answer 2

Answer:

a is the right answer so much
