In the long form of the periodic table, the most electropositive elements occupy:
Correct answer: B. Bottom left position
- A. Bottom right position
- B. Bottom left position
- C. Top right position
- D. Top left position

About Periodic Properties and Trends
Periodic properties arise from electron configuration and effective nuclear charge, producing trends in atomic and ionic radius, ionization energy, electron affinity, electronegativity, metallic character and reactivity. Comparisons run across periods and down groups, with attention to common exceptions. The topic also relates these trends to the behavior of s-block and p-block elements.
