Define Metallic and Non-Metallic Character

Answer: 

Metallic

• The level of reactivity of a metal refers to the metallic character.
• Metals have low ionisation energies and tend to lose electrons in chemical reactions.
• Metal atoms in a compound have a relatively low attraction for electrons and have low electronegativities.
• Cesium is the most reactive metal. Alkali metals are electropositive elements.

  Non-metallic 

• An element that has a tendency to accept the electrons and form ions or anions is called non-metal and exhibits a non-metallic character.
• The elements that are electronegative are oxygen and chlorine.
