Why do elements at the bottom of group one react more vigioursly with water than the elements on top?
The elements at the bottom of column 1 in a wide form periodic table react more violently with water than do the elements at the top of the column because it requires less energy to remove an electron from the outer shell of elements near the bottom of the table than from an element near the top of the table. The pre-quantum explanation of this difference is that the valence shell electrons in the larger elements at the bottom of the column are "shielded" from the attraction of the positive nucleus by the many inner shell electrons present in the larger elements.
What else can I help you with?
What is the part of the periodic table that has elements that do not chemically react?
All of them tend not to react with each other until you get lower down the group
Which group had elements on the periodic table that almost never react?
Noble gases or group 18 elements
Which group of p block elements react to form halides?
Group 17 elements, also known as the halogens, are the p block elements that react to form halides. They readily react with other elements to form salts called halides, such as sodium chloride (NaCl) and potassium iodide (KI).
Why would potassium react to group 17 elements in the periodic table?
Potassium is a metal, and it would react to group 17 (7A) because those elements are nonmetals.
What group of elements react by losing one electron?
The alkali metals in group 1 react by losing one electron.
What is special about the elements in the same group?
elements are in the same group since they react similarly to other elements in that group.
What is the part of the periodic table that has elements that do not chemically react?
All of them tend not to react with each other until you get lower down the group
What group off elements do not react with other elements?
Noble Gases
Which group in the PTOE contains elements that hardly react?
Group 18, the noble gases, are elements that hardly react with other elements. This is because they have their full complement of eight valence electrons.
Which region of the periodic table is least likely to react with other elements?
Group-18 elements least react with other elements. They are inert in nature. They are called noble gases.Elements in group 18 are less likely to react with any other elements. This group is made out of the noble gases. Its members are He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe and Rn.

Why would potassium react to group 17 elements in the periodic table?
Potassium is a metal, and it would react to group 17 (7A) because those elements are nonmetals.
What group of elements react by losing one electron?
The alkali metals in group 1 react by losing one electron.
Which groups on the periodic table react with potassium?
Potassium would strongly react with the elements in group 17 and group 16.
Which group of elements are steady and do not react readily?
They are the noble gases. Group number is eight
Why group 1 and group 2 elements do not occur free in nature?
Group 1 and group 2 elements are reactive metals and react readily with water. They also react readily at high temperatures with oxygen. Over the millenia any free deposits would react to form compounds.
