The correct decreasing order of electropositive character among the following elements is : Fe, Sc, Rb, Br, Te, F, Ca

Step-by-step solution

(i) Alkali and alkaline earth metals are most electro-positive. Alkali metals are more electropositive than alkaline earth metals. (ii) In d-block series, the elements near alkaline earth metals are more electropositive than rest of the members. (iii) Metalloids are less electropositive than metals. (iv) Halogens (Non-metals) are least electropositive. In halogen group, electropositive character increases as atomic number increases.
