What term describes the most reactive nonmetals that have seven valence electron?
halogens
Are valence electrons the reactive parts of an atom?
reactive parts of an electron?
What type of metals such as sodium have a single valence electron are very reactive?
Highly reactive metals with one valence electron are known as Alkali metals.
What type of metals such as sodium have a single valence electron and very reactive?
Highly reactive metals with one valence electron are known as Alkali metals.
What type of metal such as sodium have a single valence electrons and are very reactive?
Highly reactive metals with one valence electron are known as Alkali metals.
What element has one valence electron and is very reactive?
Sodium.
What element has only one valence electron and is extremely reactive?
HYDROGEN
Why are alkali metals more reactive than other metals?
Alkali metals are more reactive as they are in group 1 and therefore has only one valence electron. With only one valence electron, its easy for them to achieve inert configuration/ noble gas configuration, which makes them so reactive.
Is sodium or argon more reactive and why?
Argon has completely filled valence orbitals and hence is unreactive. Sodium has one valence electron. If sodium loses this electron it will attain the stable electron configuration of the nearest noble gas (argon) and hence is reactive.
What describes a valence electron?
Valence electrons are the electrons involved in chemical reactions.
Name given to electron shell that contains the most reactive electrons?
