Oxygen does not react more slowly than all of the halogens, just some of them. Plus, the rate of a reaction depends on its nature, not just whether oxygen or a halogen reacts. when the halogens do react faster, this is because they only need one electron to have a stable configuration, whereas oxygen needs two.
Halides are the most active nonmetals on the periodic table because it has high electronegativity. Meaning it is more likely to attract an electron towards itself to react.
Nothing At all
Halogens are highly reactive elements because they have seven valence electrons and are only one electron away from achieving a stable electron configuration like the noble gases. This electronic configuration makes halogens more likely to react with noble gases to gain that missing electron and achieve stability by forming compounds.
The electron configuration is why they react. The Alkali metals have one electron in their outer shell and to complete their outer shell need 7 more electrons. They can give, take or share electrons with other atoms. This is when the Halogens come in handy. The Halogens have 7 electrons in their outer shells, and need one more to complete the outer shell. These can react very easily because they have both the perfect amounts to fill their outer shells and become compounds. Other atoms with other amounts to become atoms not ions needs another element to react with. Hope this helps, Matt.
Halogens are more chemically reactive compared to noble gases. Halogens have a high tendency to gain an electron to achieve a stable electron configuration, while noble gases already have a full outer electron shell and are therefore less likely to react with other elements.
Actinium is a highly reactive element, especially with oxygen and water. It readily forms compounds with other elements and can react violently with air and moisture. Its reactivity arises from its desire to achieve a more stable electron configuration.
One possible chemical property present in substances that react slowly to oxygen is stability. These substances may have strong bonds that require more energy to break, leading to a slower reaction with oxygen. Additionally, the presence of certain inhibitors or protective layers on the substance's surface can also slow down the reaction with oxygen.

False, the more oxygen you need the faster you will breathe.

The pattern of reactions of metals with oxygen is based on their position in the reactivity series. Highly reactive metals like potassium, sodium, and calcium react vigorously with oxygen to form metal oxides. Less reactive metals like iron and copper react slowly with oxygen, forming metal oxides or hydroxides. Noble metals like gold and platinum do not react with oxygen at all under normal conditions.
Lead is a moderately active metal. It dissolves slowly in water and in most cold acids. It reacts more rapidly with hot acids. It does not react with oxygen in the air readily and does not burn.
Argon is a Non-Reactive Element. Magnesium is a very Reactive Element. Magnesium will react violently when ignited in an Oxygen rich environment.
First off, it doesn't burn more, it burns quicker. This is because It's reacting with the oxygen, and in a 100% oxygen environment there's simply more oxygen to react with (the air is 21% oxygen).
Alkali earth metals react with oxygen to form basic oxides.
