Detailed Solution

  • The greater the nuclear charge, the greater is the force exerted by the nucleus on the electron of the outermost orbit.
  • This makes it difficult to remove the electron from the outermost orbit.
  • The metallic character is the tendency of an element to lose electrons and form positive ions or cations.
  • Since the tendency of elements to lose electrons decreases, the metallic nature also decreases.
