MCQ
The element with maximum non metallic character is :
  • A
    $\ce{S}$
  • B
    $\ce{P}$
  • ✓
    $\ce{Cl}$
  • D
    $\ce{Ag}$
✓

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\ce{Cl}$
As we move down the group, tendency to lose electron increases and metallic character increases while as we move across a period, electronegativity increases so non $-$ metallic character increases.
So, among these $\ce{Cl}$ have highest non $-$ metallic character.
