g. 13A1, 14Si, 11Na, 12Mg, 16S Which of the above elements has the highest metallic character?

Question

Write down the electronic configuration of the following elements from the given atomic numbers. Answer the following question with explanation.

g. ₁₃Al, ₁₄Si, ₁₁Na, ₁₂Mg, ₁₆S Which of the above elements has the highest metallic character?

Answer 1

₁₃Al, ₁₄Si, ₁₁Na, ₁₂Mg, ₁₆S

Element and thier electronic configuratio :

₁₃Al=2,8,3

 ₁₄Si=2,8,4

₁₁Na=2,8,1

 ₁₂Mg=2,8,2

 ₁₆S=2,8,6

The element with the highest metallic character is ₁₁Na as metallic character decreases moving across a period from left to the right.
