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.

Bismuth is the element in group 15 that has the strongest metallic character. Group 15 of the periodic table contains five elements beginning with nitrogen and ending with bismuth. A characteristic of this group is that the metallic character increases as you go down the group. Bismuth is the last element down the column in this group.
