Heya mate here is your answer:-

●Metallic character increases from top to bottom because of the increase in size of the elements and hence it is easy for them to loose electrons.

Metallic character increases as you move down the periodic table. This is due to the fact that the electrons become easier to lose as the atomic radius increases. The increase in atomic radius decreases attraction between the positive nucleus and the negative electrons, causing the electrons to be held more loosely.
