The atoms lose their electrons more easily.

Vedclass · Answer

(C) Moving from left to right across a period in the Periodic Table: $1$. The metallic character of elements decreases because the nuclear charge increases,making it harder to lose electrons. $2$. The number of valence electrons increases from $1$ to $8$. $3$. Since the nuclear charge increases and the atomic size decreases,the effective nuclear attraction on valence electrons increases,making it harder for atoms to lose electrons. Thus,the tendency to lose electrons decreases. $4$. The oxides of elements on the left are basic,while those on the right are acidic. Therefore,the statement that 'atoms lose their electrons more easily' is incorrect.
