What happens to the reactivity of metals from left or right across the periodic table?

Reactivity decreases from left to right.Alkali metals on the left are most reactive.While noble gases on the right are least reactive.


What are the highest and lowest reactive elements on the periodic table?

As you move left on the periodic table, the elements get more reactive and as you move down the periodic table. Using that thinking the most reactive elements are the Alkali Earth Metals (column 1) and the most reactive element is Francium. The least reactive are the noble gases in the last column- Helium, Neon, Argon etc..

Which is the least reactive sodium aluminum or magnesium?

Aluminum is the least reactive among sodium, aluminum, and magnesium. This is because aluminum is more stable due to the presence of a protective oxide layer on its surface, which prevents further reactions. Magnesium is more reactive than both sodium and aluminum.
