The ability of an atom to accept electrons to form a negative ion (anion)
is called nonmetallic character (Electronegativity) whereas the ability of
an atom to loose electrons to form a positive ion (cation) is called metallic
character (Electropositivity). Down the group tendency to gain electrons
decreases due to increase in atomic size whereas tendency to loose
electrons increases. Across the period from left to right tendency to gain
dectron increases and tendency to loose electrons decreases
Which of the following correctly represents the decreasing order
of metallic character of alkali metals?
(1) CssRb> li > Nak (b) K > Rb > li > Na > Cs
Cs> Rb>k> Na> Li (d) Cs>K> Rb> Na> Liव्हिच ऑफ द फॉलोइंग हस हाईएस्ट इलेक्ट्रोनेगेटिविटी
