Question

Right or wrong sentence.

The metal properties of the element decrease as the spiral moves from left to right. 

Answer 1

The given sentence is right.

Explination:

Metallic character (how readily an element loses electrons) decreases as you move left → right across a period. This happens because nuclear charge increases and atomic radius decreases across a period, so valence electrons are held more tightly and the element is less likely to behave like a metal.
