The reducing nature if metals increases as we go down a group

praatikparekh: Also you can say that metals below have bigger atomic size and also their ionisation potential is low
modhu53: okay.. thanks a ton!
modhu53: I have another doubt.
modhu53: what is the relationship between ionic character and their stability down the group?
praatikparekh: stability as in radioactivity
praatikparekh: ??
modhu53: no.. stability as in reactivity.
praatikparekh: reactivity is not as such reacted with periodic table
praatikparekh: you have the activity series for reactivity
modhu53: okay.

Reducing Nature Depend upon Standard Reduction Potential value (SRP)

Li is most powerful reducing agent ..

b'cuz Standard reduction potential is more -ve for Li

Na is least powerful reducing agent
