Which family of elements is the most reactive nonmetal family?

The most reactive family of nonmetals is the halogen family.


What 4 alkali metals are the most reactive?

Alkali metals have increasing reactivity going down the group. Francium may not be considered as it is not a stable atom: it is radioactive. The next four are Cesium, Rubidium, Potassium and Sodium in decreasing reactivity order.


Most reactive non metal element?

I would easily say that Fluorine is the most reactive element in the world. Fluorine is the most electronegative of all elements and will react with all elements. It is so reactive that it cannot be found alone in nature.


What is an extremely reactive family of elements?

The Group 1 , Alkali metals. They all react with oxygen and water to form the hydroxide and release hydrogen. They all react with oxygen and water to form the hydroxide and release hydrogen. The reactivity increases down the Group . Lithium gently effervesces. Sodium 'pop's and sparks. Potassium ignites with a bang. Rubidium is moderately explosive. Caesium is violently explosive. Francium is extremely violently explosive. Francium is not reacted in an open laboratory because it is also radio-active. All the metals in Group 1 are kept under oil; no oxygen present).


What element is most reactive of lithium sodium and potassium?
