The most reactive metals will be found in Group 1 on the right side of the periodic table.
Group 1, or the alkali metals, left of the table and Group 17, the halogens, right of the table are the most reactive groups. Fr, or Francium (atomic number 87) is the most reactive metal- and fluorine the most reactive halogen. Francium and fluorine would react together explosively they are so reactive.
The metalloids split the table these are a diagonal group of elements, B, Si, Ge, As, Sb and Te. To their right are the non metals to the left the metals. There are many more metals than any other type of element. See Wikipedia article "Periodic table (metals and non metals)"
The halogens are the highly reactive nonmetals on the periodic table. This group includes elements such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine, which readily form compounds with other elements due to their strong tendency to gain an electron.
The most reactive metals are typically found in Group 1 (alkali metals) and Group 2 (alkaline earth metals) of the periodic table. Group 1 elements like lithium, sodium, and potassium are highly reactive due to their tendency to lose electrons, while Group 2 elements like beryllium and magnesium also exhibit reactivity but to a lesser extent compared to Group 1.
No, most elements in the periodic table are not metals. Elements in the periodic table include metals, nonmetals, and metalloids. Metals make up the majority of the elements in the periodic table, but nonmetals and metalloids also play essential roles.
the alkali metals are the most reactive... either cesium or francium would be the most reactive out of this group.
Metals are more reactive elements.
Inert gasses are completely non reactive. The next least reactive would be some where in the middle of the periodic table (probably precious metals).
The metals in group 13 would be less reactive than the metals in group 1 because the metals in group 1 are closest to the left of the Periodic Table. And any thing to the left are more reactive.
An element below phosphorus in the periodic table would be expected to be more reactive. For example, sulfur is below phosphorus in the periodic table and is more reactive.
Group 1, or the alkali metals, left of the table and Group 17, the halogens, right of the table are the most reactive groups. Fr, or Francium (atomic number 87) is the most reactive metal- and fluorine the most reactive halogen. Francium and fluorine would react together explosively they are so reactive.
The metalloids split the table these are a diagonal group of elements, B, Si, Ge, As, Sb and Te. To their right are the non metals to the left the metals. There are many more metals than any other type of element. See Wikipedia article "Periodic table (metals and non metals)"
On some periodic tables metals have a different color.
Less reactive non metals are in the 18th group. They are noble gasses. From all the noble gasses, Xe is the only gas which forms compounds.
The NON-metals are in the upper right corner of the Periodic Table, roughly outside the Carbon-Iodine diagonal line.
The mass of an element increases as you go down the periodic table. The heaviest discovered (synthesized) metals are in the bottom row of the transition metals group.
The halogens are the highly reactive nonmetals on the periodic table. This group includes elements such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine, which readily form compounds with other elements due to their strong tendency to gain an electron.
