Lithium is more reactive.
Lithium by far, it is an alkali metal. Alkali metals are known to explode when they are placed in water (hydrogen gas is released). Nitrogen has two electrons to fill, and alkali metals have one electron to give off. Think of it as 2>1. Just know that lithium is more reactive than nitrogen.
The elements listed are Group 1 elements, the Alkali metals. They include lithium (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), rubidium (Rb), caesium (Cs) and francium (Fr). Use the link below to check facts and learn more.
Na is chemically more like Li than Mg, only physically (measurements, mass) it looks more like Mg
in a fusion reaction Li6 and Li7 when hit by a neutron split into tritium and helium. the tritium can then fuse with deuterium to make more helium.
On the periodic table, there are periods that are rows, and groups that are columns. Elements in the same group react like the other elements in the group.
lithium
I think lithium should be more reactive as it has only 1 valance electron wheres Boron has 3 valance electrons. The electro positivity(tendency to lose electrons) of Lithium is greater then Boron, therefore more reactive.
Beryllium and Lithium have many differences. Lithium reacts readily with water, where Beryllium does not. Lithium has a fairly low melting point, and Beryllium has a high melting point. Beryllium is highly toxic, and Lithium is fairly nontoxic. Both are metals, and have metallic appearance and conduct electricity but Beryllium more brittle than Lithium is.
Lithium is wayy more reactive... like, duh? An elements reactivity depends on its ionisation energy (the amount of energy required to remove one electron from the atom) and if you look at a periodic table the ionisation energy is known to increase across the table and decrease down it. Berylium is further across the table than lithium so you'd expect it to have a lower ionisation energy and be less reactive. This is because beryllium (atomic number 4) has 4 protons, which cause a positive charge and subsequent attraction of electrons, while lithium has the atomic number 3 and therefore only has 3 protons to attract its electrons. Lithium is a Group I alkali metal, while Beryllium is a Group II alkaline earth metal. Group I Alkali metals are generally more reactive as they only need to lose one electron to have a complete outer shell.
in the periodic table s block element except be and mg are highly reactive element . the reactivity increase from top to bottom and the element of lithium famil is more reactive than the the the beryllium family. cs is more reactive in s block element . they are most powerful reducing agent /
No, strontium is more reactive than beryllium.
Definitely lithium. Lithium is a Group I alkali metal, while Beryllium is a Group II alkaline earth metal and are on the same period. Group I Alkali metals are generally more reactive as they only need to lose one electron to have a complete outer shell.
Lithium is more reactive than Neon.
neon is a noble gas that will not react with anything -- any other element except helium is more reactive than neon! With lithium, quite a reactive metal, it is certainly more reactive than neon.

Francium is considered the most reactive of the group 1 elements. This is because it is the largest of all elements in group 1, therefore takes the least amount of energy to lose an electron (Group 1 elements react by losing electrons.)
Reactivity of any metal depends on its capacity to loose electrons as quickly as possible. Among Lithium, Copper and tungsten, lithium is the most reactive since it looses electrons very quickly and forms its cation. In fact, it is among the most reactive metals.
