u know how Li has one valence electron and then on the other side were neon and stuff is and how it has a full outer orbital because as u read 4rm left to right the group/family will always have the same valence electron

The upper right part (example O, F, Cl) and the lower left part (example Cs, Fr, Ra) elements are morte reactive than other parts, but this is only a rule of thumb.

elements on either end of the Periodic Table (except for group 18 elements) are generally more reactive than the elements in the middle of the table.

Is the reactivity of the metal elements generally increase as you move from left to right across the periodic table true or false?

False,reactivity of elements generally decreases from left to right.As free electrons become less,reactivity decreases.So the given statement is false.


What are periods for periodic tables?

a Periodic Table organises the different elements, according to the atoms' mass, type, properties, reactivity etc. See the question about: periodic table patterns
