Lithium

C

Sodium

D

Calcium

Understanding the Answer

Let's break down why this is correct

Fluorine sits in the top right of the periodic table, giving it many protons and a tiny size. Other options are incorrect because Some think a metal can be very electronegative; People might assume the larger an atom, the more electronegative it is.
