In talking about an element being more metallic, we must consider which one is more to the left, or more to the left, and more down.
00:12
So this is different than ionizing, which is to the right and up, instead of right to the left and down.
00:17
So i've placed dots on the table for us to compare positions for all four of the different comparisons.
00:24
So first we have these black dots, sb and sr.
00:29
Sr is much less right than sp it's more on the left side.
00:35
So the answer here is sr.
00:38
Since they're in the same row, we don't have to worry about moving up and down.
00:44
Now if you look at as and bi, these two red dots, they're in the same column, but as is higher up than b .i.
00:54
B .i is lower and has more metallic character.
00:57
So b .i is the answer...
