Chlorine is very reactive because it is a halogen (Group VII of the Periodic Table) and it does not have a filled outermost energy level. Argon is unreactive because it is a noble gas (Group VIII of the Periodic Table). Its outermost energy level is full.

What is he element is found in the same period as sulfur and argon and that is more reactive than sulfur and argon?
Chlorine
Why is chlorine more reactive than sulphur?
why is chlorine more reactive than sulphur? it is not an answer but am asking what is the answer to it please
Why is chlorine more reactive than bromine?
In most cases, chlorine is more reactive than bromine. This occurs because chlorine has a higher electronegativity than bromine. Thus, chlorine tends to take electrons from other substances more readily than bromine, and thus is more reactive.
Is potassium more reactive than argon?
Yes you are correct, potassium being an alkali metal is definitely more reactive than argon which is a noble gas (group 18 element). Potassium reacts violently with just water while argon is very inert and stable, which is why it remains in the atmosphere as a monatomic element.
Is chlorine more reactive than neon?
Yes, Neon is a noble gas (its outer shell of electrons is full) and does not react with anything, while Chlorine is a halide and is very reactive.
Chlorine has an atomic number of 17 and argon has an atomic number of 18 what can i predict from this?
chlorine is more chemical reactive than argon.
What is he element is found in the same period as sulfur and argon and that is more reactive than sulfur and argon?
Chlorine
Which is the most active nonmetal out of argon chlorine potassium or selenium?
chlorine is more reactive than selenium. Chlorine needs one electron to form octet whereas selenium needs two.
Is chlorine more reactive with oxygen than argon?
Yes. Argon is one of the noble gases with a valence configuration of 8 electrons. All of the noble gases are the least reactive elements.
Why chlorine is highly reactive than other halogens?
It isn't. Fluorine is more reactive. However, Chlorine is more reactive than Bromine, Iodine and Astatine. It is all to do with molecular size. Fluorine wants to get to a stable 10 electrons to be like Neon more than Chlorine wants to get to get 18 lectrons to be like Argon. This is because the valence/bonding electrons are closer to the nucleus in Fluorine than they are Chlorine and thus more strongly attracted.

Which is more reactive francium or chlorine?
Francium is considered more reactive than Chlorine.
Is chlorine more reactive than aluminum?
Yes, chlorine is a very reactive chemical element.
What is more reatice fluorine or chlorine?
Fluorine is more reactive than chlorine.
Is helium more reactive than argon?
No. Both helium and argon are chemically inert.
Is fluorine more reactive than chlorine?
yes
