Metallic character of an element is determined by its ease to lose electrons that is the force of attraction put on the shells by the nucleus should be less. Therefore elements with greater atomic number and present in the last period to the left side is considered to be more metallic. so reactive metals are those that easily lose electrons and react with other elements. eg francium , caesium radium barium
