no, chlorine likes to bond to elements in the alkaline family very easily such as lithium or sodium, which make lithium chloride and sodium chloride(salt).

The noble gases, column 18 in a wide form periodic table.


Is chlorine chemically reactive?

Yes, chlorine is chemically reactive. It is a highly reactive nonmetal and readily forms compounds with other elements.


Is chlorine stable and unreactive?

Chlorine is number 17 on the periodic table, so yes it is stable. It's a poisonous gas and it is NOT unreactive. The main thing that chlorine reacts with is sodium, making sodium chloride, A.K.A. table salt.


Which elements are unreative?

The noble gases are almost chemically unreactive and they are located in group 18 of the periodic table.


Why is chlorine very reactive and argon is unreactive?

Chlorine is very reactive because it has seven electrons in its outer shell, making it highly likely to gain one electron to achieve a stable electron configuration. Argon is unreactive because it already has a full outer shell of electrons, so it does not need to gain or lose any electrons to achieve stability.


What do you get when you chemically combine chlorine and sodium?

When you chemically combine chlorine and sodium, you get sodium chloride, which is commonly known as table salt. Sodium donates an electron to chlorine, forming an ionic bond between the two elements.


Is fluorine chlorine and iodine similar to noble gases?

No, they are not. Fluorine, chlorine, and iodine are halogens, meaning they have 7 valence shell electrons. They are the second most nonreactive group of elements, besides the noble gases, which have 8 and do not react at all.
