No, helium is a noble gas, meaning it has a full outer electron shell. It does not need to gain or lose electrons to become stable, so it is almost completely inert. Hydrogen on the other hand, is extremely reactive as it only needs one electron to become stable. This is why the Hindenburg airship exploded, and why we use helium in similar craft today.

Is uranium more reactive than magnesium explain?

Uranium is not more reactive than magnesium. Magnesium is more reactive than uranium. Magnesium reacts with water to form magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas, while uranium is relatively stable and does not react as readily with water.

Is magnesium more reactive than lithium?

No, lithium is more reactive than magnesium because it has a higher tendency to lose electrons. Magnesium reacts slowly with water, whereas lithium reacts vigorously with water, producing hydrogen gas.
