The most reactive metal is francium but this element is only a curiosity being very rare and unstable.
The most reactive group of metals in the periodic table is Group 1, the alkali metals. These metals are highly reactive due to their low ionization energies, which means they readily lose their outermost electron to form positive ions. This reactivity increases as you move down the group due to the decreasing ionization energies.
Most metals are reactive to some extent, but their reactivity varies. Some metals, such as gold and platinum, are less reactive and do not easily tarnish or corrode. Other metals, like sodium and potassium, are highly reactive and must be stored in oil to prevent them from reacting with moisture in the air.
Alkali metals are the most reactive group of metals due to their low ionization energy, which allows them to readily lose their outermost electron to form cations. This reactivity increases down the group, with francium being the most reactive alkali metal.
Metals are highly reactive because of their characteristic electronic configuration, that is, the electrons in the atoms of metals have high tendency to leave their respective atoms and react with other species which have high tendency to accept electron.
Most active non-metals have atoms with strong electronegativity, allowing them to readily gain electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. This high electron affinity makes these atoms highly reactive, often forming covalent bonds with other elements to complete their outer electron shell. Examples of highly reactive non-metals include fluorine and oxygen.
Most reactive metals are alkali metals, most reactive nonmetalas are halogens.Least reactive metals are platinum metals; least reactive nonmetals are noble gases.
The most reactive non metals are Halogens which may combine most of the metals as well as non metals.
Alkali metals are most reactive metals. Halogen family comprises of highly reactive non-metals.
The Alkali metals are the most reactive group of metals in the Periodic Table. Of these Francium is the most reactive metal of all.
Alkali metals
The Alkali metals are the most reactive group of metals in the Periodic Table. Of these Francium is the most reactive metal of all.
the alkali metals are the most reactive... either cesium or francium would be the most reactive out of this group.
in the Periodic Table it is the most reactive metals!
Because to be stable they need 8 atoms on outermost shell.Alkali need 7 so are highly reactive.
The most reactive metals are in the group 1 of the Periodic Table - the alkali metals.
Alkaline metals (Group 1) are the most reactive metals.
