Question

Arrange these elements based on their metallic character.Place a 1 in the box next to the most metallic element. Increasethe numbers until you place a 4 in the box next to the leastmetallic element. Sc I Li Cu I put: Sc = 3 I = 1 Li = 4 Cu = 2 I arranged them based on how high their atomic number was onthe periodic table and how close they were to groups 3-12 but itwas wrong, and Idk how to compare metallicness. All I know is thatmetallic character increases to the southwest, but that doesnt helpmuch since they're not directly linear from each other.. Will ratelifesaver!

Explanation / Answer

Well if 1 is the most metallic character and 4 is the leastmetallic character if you're looking left and down as greater metalliccharacter, then 1) Li 2) Sc 3) Cu 4) I Consider looking at electronegativity tables lower electronegativity values generally indicate greatermetallic character. lower electronegativity values generally indicate greatermetallic character.
