Answer:
From top to bottom electropositivity increases
Left to right it reduces
Explanation:
Electropositivity is also known as metallicity. It is a measure of the tendency of atoms of an element to lose electrons. It is closely related to the ionization energy and indeed the electronegativity.
- The lower the ionization energy, the more electropositive a substance is.
- Across the period from left to right, electropositivity or metallicity decreases and from top to down a group, it increases.
