halogens
Because it's "easier" for the elements to gain or loose just one electron, so they react more readily.
nonmetals
Some are solid (eg carbon) some are gaseous (eg oxygen) and one is liquid (bromine).
there are 18 there are 18 nonmetals
The tribes that are still active are the Sioux Tribe. The other tribes are not that active. But the Sioux tribe is the most active tribe out of all of them.
Halogens
Halogens
Yes
The most active metals are alkali metals.The most active nonmetals are halogens.
the most active is oxygen
17
The most active group of nonmetals are those in Group 17, and these are the halogens. The list is headed by fluorine, which is the most reactive element of the group and of the Periodic Table as a whole.
It is fluorine. Fluorine is part of the halogens they are very active nonmetals.
D- Helium
Examples of active nonmetals include oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, and bromine. These elements readily form compounds and react with other elements to gain electrons.
The Halogens are the most reactive non-metals. However, their reactivity decreases as you go down the group. Most reactive Fluorine>Chlorine>Bromine>Iodine>Astatine Least reactive. However, Astatine is not fully characterised because it is radio-active, and consequently is not found in open(school) labs.
Nonmetals. These elements typically have properties such as poor conductivity, low melting points, and brittle structure. They are located on the right side of the periodic table.
