Does helium and fluorine have a similar reaction?

Helium is inert and does not readily react with other elements, including fluorine. Fluorine is a highly reactive element and will readily react with many other elements, but not with helium due to its stable electron configuration.


What is meant by the activity of an element?

The activity of an element refers to its reactivity or how likely it is to participate in chemical reactions. Elements with high activity readily form compounds, while those with low activity are less likely to react with other substances. The activity of an element is often influenced by its position on the periodic table.


What element group does not react with other elements?

Noble gases, group 18 on the periodic table, do not react readily with other elements due to their stable and full outer electron shells. This leads to low reactivity and makes them chemically inert.


The number of electrons determines what of an element?

The number of electrons in an element determines its chemical properties and behavior. Specifically, it influences how an element will bond with other elements to form compounds and determines its reactivity.


How do elements react with oxygen?

Elements can react with oxygen in various ways, forming oxides. Some elements, like alkali metals, react vigorously with oxygen to form oxides. Other elements, like noble gases, are generally unreactive with oxygen. The type of oxide formed depends on the element's properties and the conditions of the reaction.
