This element is chlorine and is very reactive.
Electronegativity - capacity to loss electrons - is representative for the reactivity of chemical elements; for metals low electronegativity is a high reactivity.
Elements in the same column on the periodic table have similar chemical reactivity because they have the same outer electron configuration and it is the electron structure that determines an elements properties.
Yes and no; the number of protons determine the valance number of electrons. The valence level of electrons and how full/empty it is largely determines an elements chemical behavior. I would say that valence electrons are the main determinant, but that is predetermined by protons.
The number of valence electrons an element atom contains will determine its chemical properties.
Based on the periodicity of the elements regarding properties, reactivity, valence electrons, etc.
The reactivity of actinides varies among the elements because the number of Valence Electrons in actinides have 3-6 valence electrons therefore the reactivity varies as well. -JB

By using the activity series (sometimes called reactivity series) which orders metals by their reactivity with other metals, one can determine the reactivity of a metal

The number of loosely held electrons determines the reactivity of an element. Other elements attract electrons and will react also.
Yes and no; the number of protons determine the valance number of electrons. The valence level of electrons and how full/empty it is largely determines an elements chemical behavior. I would say that valence electrons are the main determinant, but that is predetermined by protons.
False,reactivity of elements generally decreases from left to right.As free electrons become less,reactivity decreases.So the given statement is false.
The number of valence electrons an element atom contains will determine its chemical properties.
Only in hydrogen or helium, because in these two elements only the innermost shell is also the outermost shell.
Based on the periodicity of the elements regarding properties, reactivity, valence electrons, etc.
Electrons in the outer shell, also known as valance electrons, determine how an atom will react. To be more precise I should add that there are transition state elements whose reactivity is also influenced by some of the inner electrons as well.
