Solution
The given sentence is wrong.
Explanation:
Metallic character is defined by an atom's ability to easily lose electrons, which is called electropositivity. Electronegativity is the exact opposite; it is the tendency of an atom to attract electrons. Since non-metals are the elements that attract and gain electrons, electronegativity is considered a non-metallic property.
