the metallic character increase down the group as the size of atom increase down the group so the electron in outer most shell r more free to move
The far left side of the Periodic Table of the Elements are the metals. Traversing the Table from left to the right, the middle becomes the transition metals. The far right become the gases.
metallic characteristic increases down a group.
As one goes down a column within the periodic table, metallic character increases.
Down a group, the metallic character increases whereas across a period, the metallic character decreases.
Decrease gradually across the periodic table
it increases
gain electrons more readily and increase in nonmetallic character
it decreases
Electronegativity increases across a period. The non metallic character also increases.
The element in Period 3 that has the greatest metallic character is magnesium. In periods, the metallic character decreases when atomic number increases.
metallic elements are found in the center of the periodic table, and nonmetallic elements are anywhere but the middle...

Across a period, the metallic character decreases.

Electropositivity decreases along a period. The metallic character also decreases.
Metallic character decreases as we move across a period. The electronegative character increases as we move across a period. So the element across the period will be non mettalic in nature.

Electronegativity increases across a period. The non metallic character also increases.
The element in Period 3 that has the greatest metallic character is magnesium. In periods, the metallic character decreases when atomic number increases.
Metallic character increases as one transitions down and right through the periodic table. By definition, francium (Fr) would be the most metallic, but only extremely small amounts of it exist at any given time, thereby rendering caesium (Cs) as the most metallic element.

Metallic character decreases as you go across any single period of the Periodic Table. This is because metals are characterized by their ability to lose electrons to form cations; the easier it is to do so, the more reactive a metal is. Non-metals are characterized by their ability to gain electrons to form anions; the easier to do so, the more reactive a non-metal is. As you go across any single period, elements gain an extra valency electron. This makes it harder and harder for those elements to lose their valency electrons, thus becoming more and more non-metallic.
