No, lithium is ins a family of mostly metals with 1 valence electron.
metals can conduct electricity, the valence electrons of nonmetals cannot roam freely
Halogens are all non-metals, they are all very reactive, and they are all colorful.
Lithium has 1 valence electron.
When we say valence electron we mean the number of electron left it the outermost shell of element, valence electron can be positive of negetive. If an element need much electrons to be octet, that means that the element is not reactive than the one who will give out electrons, the the one who can give electrons much are less reactive than the one who can give a litle and the reaction will be normal as it is soppused to be, Eg lithium and berylium. Lithium is more reactive than berylium because lithuin has 1valence electron while berylium has 2....reactivity goes with the action of valence electron in an element
Lithium has only one valence electron. A valence electron is an unpaired electron available for bonding with other elements. This makes lithium is a highly reactive element that can bond rapidly and often violently with any element having four to seven valence electrons (or with hydrogen).
Halogens
alkali earth metals
The Halogens.
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.

Nonmetals attract electrons.

Electrons are no reactive by itself but they are important in chemical reactions - valence electrons.
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.
