Compared to what? But it would be less reactive because the s orbital is filled, the electrons are all paired. If you mean "Why is beryllium the least reactive of the Group II alkaline earth metals?", then this is because it has the least electron shielding, having an electron configuration of 2, 2. Beryllium is at the top as the first of the Group II alkaline earth metals, and reactivity increases as you go down Groups I and II.

Is beryllium reactive and why is it reactive?
Beryllium is not so reactive; the electronegativity after Pauling scale is 1,57.
Is a beryllium atom reactive or non reactive?
reactive
Which is more reactive barium magnesium or beryllium?
Ba; Barium
The least reactive metal in group 1 of the periodic table?
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.)
A reactive metal with a high melting point it is used in the manufacture of rocket nose cones?
Titanium
Is beryllium the most or least reactive in its group?
Beryllium is the least reactive in the group 2.
Is beryllium reactive and why is it reactive?
Beryllium is not so reactive; the electronegativity after Pauling scale is 1,57.
Is a beryllium atom reactive or non reactive?
reactive
Is beryllium more reactive than strontium?
No, strontium is more reactive than beryllium.
What particles make beryllium reactive?
Beryllium is not so reactive; the electronegativity after Pauling scale is 1,57.
Least reactive alkaline earth metal?
All alkali (not alkaline-earth) metals are extremely reactive with water, but within the group, lithium is the least reactive.
Which element is more reactive - lithium Li or beryllium be?
Lithium is more reactive.
What is the least reactive element in the group 2 of the periodic table of elements?
The Zinc Family also known as group IIB is the second least reactive I believe. The least reactive family is the one with a full p sublevel, the noble gases, the next least reactive would be the family with a full d sublevel. Since group IIB has a full d sublevel, it must be the next least reactive family.
Which element is more reactive lithium of beryllium?
lithium
Which member of alkaline earth metal is least reactive?
Look at any periodic table: Beryllium #4 Magnesium #12 Calcium #20 Strontium #38 Barium #56 Radium #88
Which is more reactive barium magnesium or beryllium?
Ba; Barium
What family is beryllium most reactive with?
Beryllium react with the members of halogens family (group 17) and chalcogens (group 16).
