You can determine the reactivity of a metal by looking at it's valence electrons. For example if the atom has one electron in it's valence shell it is more reactive because it wants to get rid of it and have a full valence shell.

Why the lithium is the most active alkali metal?
Lithium is NOT the most active alkali metal. Francium is the most active but is available in such trace quantities and radioactive that for practical purposes it is Cesium that is considered most active.
What is is the most active nonmetal?
Fluorine
What is the most active non metal?
chlorine
What woul the most active metal be?
Francium
Where is the most active metal located on the periodic table Where is the most active nonmetal located?
The most active metal is francium (Fr). It is located farthest to the left and at the bottom. The most active nonmetal is fluorine (F). It is located at the top of Group 17 (the halogens).
The most active metal would be the one that is?
largest
What is most active metal of the calcium family is?
beryllium
Explain why Fluorine is the most active non-metal and Francium is the most active metal?
Francium is the most electropositive chemical element and has the lowest electronegativity; for the fluorine the situation is exactly inverse.
Evaluate these electron configurations and determine which represents the most active nonmetal?
The most active non metal would be fluorine, 9F2 with electron configuration 1s2 2s2 2p5 If you were making pure fluorine, what would you have ready to collect your product in? (should you be ready for the most reactive nonmetal to react with anything you put it in)?
Will a less active metal will replace a more active metal?
No. A metal will replace any less active metal.
What most active metal would be the one that is the most difficult to ionize?
Largest.
What is the most active metal besides francium?
The next is caesium.
