The electropositive character decreases from

Question

The electropositive character decreases from (A) Li to Cs (lithium to cesium) in the 1 group (B)  Cl to I (chlorine to iodine) in the VII group (C)  Al to Na (aluminium to sodium) in the same period (D) none of the above

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

: Electropositive character decreases from left to right in a period, e.g. sodium is more electropositive than magnesium, which in turn is more electropositive than aluminium. In a group, electropositive character increases as we move down the group.
