What time describes the most reactive nonmetals that have seven valence electrons?
Halogens
What term describes the most reactive nonmetals that have seven valence electron?
halogens
What family is a very reactive group of mostly nonmetals whose atoms have 7 valence electrons?
The Halogens.
Do all nonmetals have a completelyfull Valence shell of electrons?
There is no set amount of valence electrons for nonmetals. The amount of valence electrons a nonmetal has is determined by the number of electrons on the outer shell of the atom.
Can nonmetals gain electrons to fill their valence shells?
Yes, nonmetals generally gain electrons to fill valence shells.
Is lithium family a very reactive group of mostly nonmetals whose atoms have 7 valence electrons?
No, lithium is ins a family of mostly metals with 1 valence electron.
The valence electrons found in metals are different from nonmetals because .?
metals can conduct electricity, the valence electrons of nonmetals cannot roam freely
What will a non-metal do with its valence electrons?
Nonmetals attract electrons.
Does two valence electrons is a reactive or non reactive?
The outer shell of an atom is most stable or non reactive with 8 electrons. 1 or 2 valence electrons would be reactive. It also would depend if it's bonded with another element.
Why are electrons so reactive?
Electrons are no reactive by itself but they are important in chemical reactions - valence electrons.
Is unreactivity a property of metal?
No, because metals are on the left side of the Periodic Table. Therefore, they are reactive. Nonmetals, on the left side of the Periodic Table, are less reactive, because they have more valence electrons.
Are having eight valence electrons makes atoms very reactive?
No, eight valence electrons completely fills the valence band and makes the atom inert. The most reactive atoms have either one valence electron or seven valence electrons.
