Why are elements in family 1 very reactive?

Elements in family 1 are very reactive because they have one electron in their outermost shell, making them highly likely to lose that electron to achieve a stable electron configuration. This results in the formation of positive ions, which allows these elements to readily bond with other elements to achieve stability.


What is the family that contains very reactive elements such as F Cl BR I?

We call them halogens.they are in the 17th group.


Is lithium reactive to other elements?

Yes. Lithium is very reactive to other elements.


Is sodium a very reactive metal?

Yes sodium is very reactive metal.Just because of this it is kept in kerosene or some another oil because it is very reactive with oxygen and water.


Are the elements in group 18 reactive?

all the elements of group 18 are Nobel gases. They are very very less reactive.


What family of elements in the period table contains the most reactive metals?

The most reactive metals are the alkali metals in group 1a.


Which groups of elements are very reactive?

The alkali metals (Group 1) and the halogens (Group 17) are known to be very reactive elements. Alkali metals react vigorously with water, while halogens are highly reactive nonmetals that readily form compounds with other elements.


What elements are considered not very reactive?

Noble Gases


What element is very non-reactive and therefore used for jewelry?

the very non reactive elements are very valuable but they are platinium, gold and silver.


How reactive are the synthetic elements?

Synthetic elements can be highly reactive due to their unstable nature and tendency to decay into more stable forms through radioactive decay or by forming compounds with other elements. Some synthetic elements have very short half-lives, making them extremely reactive in the short time they exist.


Which group of elements are very reactive with water?

The column you're looking for is called the Alkali metals. They are very reactive, but not JUST with water. They actually violently react with almost ANYTHING if they aren't already with another element. Exposure to air, skin, dirt, other metals, It all ends with violence (i.e. huge explosions).


Is chlorine chemically reactive?

Yes, chlorine is chemically reactive. It is a highly reactive nonmetal and readily forms compounds with other elements.
