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..


Most reactive group in periodic table?

The most reactive goup in the metals is the Alkali metals (Group I) The most reactive non-metal group is Group 17 or VIIA) the Halogens. It is difficult to say which of the two groups is more reactive. Chemists will say that Flourine is the most reactive element. Note that Group 18 is the least reactive, most stable.

What column in the periodic chart contains the atoms with an ideal electron configuration?

The column in the periodic table that contains atoms with an ideal electron configuration is the noble gases group (Group 18). These atoms have a full outer shell of electrons, making them stable and less likely to react with other elements.


What family elements in the periodic table contains the most reactive metals?

I'm pretty sure it's the Alkali Metals family.
