Is lithium or Neon more reactive?
Lithium is more reactive than Neon.
Does fluorine share more characteristics with bromine or neon How can you tell?
Fluorine and bromine have 7 valence electrons and hence their properties are similar. Neon has 8 valence electrons and the properties are different from that of fluorine.
Is neon highly reactive?
No, not really. Neon is a Noble Gas meaning it has all the shells in its atom filled so it doesn't really share, gain, or lose electrons. Study has shown it could possibly combine with Fluorine.
How are the elements nitrogen and oxygen different from neon?
There are 7, 8 and 10 protons in nitrogen, oxygen and neon respectively. Neon has 8 valence electrons and is stable. Nitrogen and oxygen have 5 and 6 valence electrons respectively are are reactive.
What gases are on the periodic table?
in number order it goes hydrogen, helium, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, neon, chlorine, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon. Hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, and chlorine are diatomic gases. Helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon are monatomic gases.
Which element is most reactive nitrogen oxygen fluorine neon and why?
Fluorine. In fact, fluorine is the most reactive element period. That's because atoms always want to have a full outer shell of electrons. The closer to full, the more reactive (unless it's completely full). Fluorine only needs one more electron to have a full outer shell, whereas oxygen needs two, nitrogen needs three, and neon is already full.
Is fluorine in the same family as neon?
No- fluorine is a halogen and Neon is an inert or noble gas. Fluorine is one of the most reactive elements of all and Neon is the 2nd most unreactive after Helium. You can not get more different.
Most reactive gas?
The most reactive gas is known as fluorine. Its oxidizing abilities make it highly reactive due to its ability to create strong bonds with fellow atoms.
Which is more reactive fluorine or nitrogen?
Fluorine is the most reactive element period. So, it is therefore more reactive than carbon. However, as carbon forms the basis of organic molecules, people come across its compounds more often.
Why sodium and fluorine very reactive while neon show no reactivity?
sodium has one electron more(2,8,1) and fluorine has 1 electron less(2,7) But neon has a stable configuration(2,8,8).
Of the gases oxygen argon chlorine and neon which 2 would be the most chemically reactive?
The elements from most reactive to least reactive are: Chlorine, Oxygen, Argon, and Neon.
Of the gases oxygen argon chlorine and neon which would be the two most chemically reactive?
The elements from most reactive to least reactive are: Chlorine, Oxygen, Argon, and Neon.
Is lithium or Neon more reactive?
Lithium is more reactive than Neon.
Oxygen fluorine sodium magnesium aluminium and neon which one is a single atom?
neon
Why chlorine is highly reactive than other halogens?
It isn't. Fluorine is more reactive. However, Chlorine is more reactive than Bromine, Iodine and Astatine. It is all to do with molecular size. Fluorine wants to get to a stable 10 electrons to be like Neon more than Chlorine wants to get to get 18 lectrons to be like Argon. This is because the valence/bonding electrons are closer to the nucleus in Fluorine than they are Chlorine and thus more strongly attracted.
Why fluorine reacts with neon?
they are noble gases, they tend not to react with anything
Which is more reactive lithium in group 1 or neon in group 18?
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.
