Reactivity generally increases from top to bottom in Group 1 elements due to the decrease in ionization energy. In contrast, Group 2 elements do not show the same reactivity trend as Group 1; reactivity generally increases from top to bottom due to the decreasing ionization energy, but other factors such as atomic size and electron shielding can also influence the reactivity patterns in Group 2.
Yes, of course. It is an element found in the right side of the periodic table of elements. You can tell the level of an element being non-metallic by following the flow of left-to-right and bottom-to-top.
Examples for the groups I an II of the periodic table:- the atomic radius grows from top to bottom- the electronegativity descends from top to bottom
As I understand it scientists took an educated guess at the Hydrogen Atom and all the rest were extrapolated from there.
The reactivity of a non metal decreases as you move down a group. This is because the size of the atomic radius increases and when the distance to the nucleus increases, the force of attraction decreases. Electrons are not pulled as strongly to larger atoms, and so larger atoms are not as reactive.

Towards the bottom, atomic mass increases. Atomic number also increases.

Reactivity generally increases as you move from right to left across a period and from top to bottom down a group on the periodic table. This is because elements on the left side of the table have fewer electrons in their outer shell, making them more likely to lose electrons and react with other elements.

Right at the bottom.
The most active metal is francium (Fr). It is located farthest to the left and at the bottom. The most active nonmetal is fluorine (F). It is located at the top of Group 17 (the halogens).
Their metallic properties increase and their atomic radii increase.This can be checked with the Reference Table S with the atomic radii and metallic properties. Easy, right?
When reading the periodic table top to bottom, the number of electron energy levels increase. This is because each row in the periodic table corresponds to one electron energy level. The number of energy level corresponds to the period number of the element.
Radon is an inert or noble gas, and that's as far from being a metal as an element can get. You'll find radon at the bottom of the Group 18 elements (naturally) on the periodic table. Use the link below for more information.
