Which property decreases from left to right across the periodic table and increases from top to bottom?
(i) Atomic radius
(ii) Electronegativity
(iii) Ionisation energy
(iv) Metallic character

A

Electron affinity

B

Electro negativity

C

Ionisation energy

D

Metallic character

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
A cross the period, nuclear pull increases with atomic number, thus, atomic size decreases. Hence, elements cannot lose electrons easily.
