No; just the reverse.
As you go down a group in the periodic table, metallic characteristics increase. This is because atomic size increases, leading to a decrease in ionization energy and electronegativity. These trends make elements more likely to lose electrons and exhibit metallic properties such as malleability, ductility, and good electrical conductivity.
The atoms become smaller in atomic radius.
The location of an element in the periodic table of elements tells you its general chemical properties. Elements are of essentially 3 types, metal, non metal, or noble gas (which is a special type of non metal) and those all have their own locations on the table; in addition you can tell a lot about how chemically active an element is, or in other words, how metallic is it, or how non metallic. We know for example, that the the halogens, in group seven, are most non metallic at the top of the table, and become progressively less non metallic (or in other words more metallic) as you go down the column. The noble gases are at their most inert at the top of the column. And so forth.
Alpha decay is the type of radioactive decay that causes the radionuclide to become an element with a higher atomic number. In alpha decay, the radionuclide emits an alpha particle, which consists of two protons and two neutrons, resulting in the formation of a new element with a higher atomic number.
Phosphorous is a chemical element with the symbol P and atomic number 15. It is a non-metal that is essential for life, playing a key role in energy transfer and storage in cells. It is found in various compounds, such as phosphates, and is important for the growth of plants and animals.
The metal become a cation.
as going down the group the size of the atom increases so electrons become loosely bonded moreover shielding effect increases so thats why it has metallic luster

no, magnesium is an element but can become a compound

an element becomes more metallic as you travel down a group. it becomes less metallic as you travel from left to right across a period.
I'm guessing you are acking Atomic Radius. The atomic radius decreases and you go left to right because the shielding effect from the lower electrons stays almost constent while the elements gain more protons adding to the effective nuclear charge pulling the electrons closer to the nucleus.

Elements tend to become more metallic as you go down a group. This is because as you move down a group, the number of electron shells increases, resulting in weaker attraction between the nucleus and the outermost electrons, making it easier for the atoms to lose electrons and show metallic properties.
An atom must gain or lose protons from its nucleus to become an atom of another element. The number of protons, and to a much lesser extent the number of neutrons, will determine the chemical properties of an element.
