Solution
The correct option is B aluminium
- Metals are the ones which are electropositive in nature and have the tendency to lose electrons and form cations (positively charged species).
- In earth's crust, nonmetal Oxygen (O) is present in maximum quantity followed by non metal Silicon (Si).
- After Oxygen and Silicon, the element present in a major amount is metal Aluminium (Al).
Hence, option B is correct. Aluminium is the most abundant metal in the earth's crust.
