How can I Explain Why All Other Atoms Are Reactive?

Other atoms are reactive because they are constantly seeking to attain a stable electron configuration. Atoms will interact with other atoms in order to gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve a full outer shell of electrons, which is the most stable configuration. This reactivity is driven by the desire to achieve a lower energy state.


How many electrons does each atom desire?

Atoms do not actually have desires as such, although the metaphor can be useful. Atoms are more stable when they have a full outer electron shell.  The smaller atoms, hydrogen, helium, lithium, and beryllium, can obtain a full outer shell with only two electrons in it.  The heavier atoms require 8 electrons to have a full outer shell.  That is known as the octet rule (an octet is a set of eight).

What is meant when an element is described as reactive?

When we speak of an element being reactive, we're generally talking about that element's desire or willingness to loan out or borrow electrons. You'll recall that the loaning and borrowing (along with the sharing) of electrons is what chemical bonding is all about. In chemistry, those atoms with the strongest desire to either loan out or borrow electons are the most reactive. And we find those atoms at the extreme left and extreme right of the periodic table (with the Group 18 elements, the inert or noble gases, excepted).

What is the driving force behind bond formation?

The driving force behind bond formation is the desire of atoms to attain a more stable electron configuration. By sharing, gaining, or losing electrons, atoms can achieve a full outer electron shell (octet) or follow the duet rule, leading to a lower energy state and increased stability.


What shape are all diatomic molecules?

Diatomic molecules have 2 atoms combined. The way they line up is determined by the desire to keep each atom as far away as possible from all the other electrons in the molecule apart from those being shared. The only way to do this is to be a linear molecule, so the atoms are side by side.
