They react to form covalent bonds with one another.
Plutonium can react with the majority of the nonmetals.
Potassium is a metal, and it would react to group 17 (7A) because those elements are nonmetals.

unreactive nonmetals are called noble gases
Yes.
Nonmetals that do not react naturally with other elements are inert. These nonmetals are called the noble gases and are in Group 18 (VIIIA) on the Periodic Table.
Nonmetals may react with metal to form ionic compounds (salts) or other nonmetal elements to form organic compounds.
Neptunium can react with the majority of other nonmetals.
Plutonium can react with the majority of the nonmetals.
Most of the nonmetals, particularly the halides.
Elements from the boron, carbon, pnictogen, chalcogen and halogen families (groups 13 to 17) react with metals.
The chemistry of francium is not known; it is probable that francium easy react with nonmetals.
Potassium is a metal, and it would react to group 17 (7A) because those elements are nonmetals.
Something that can happen is they can gain, lose, or share four elements.
