Actually, like human nature is dominant of on another. In the same way, metals and non-metals are also dominant over one another. The metals and non-metals have a tendency of displacing another metal or non-metal from its salt solution or any other compound. According to this property of theirs, they are classified as more or less reactive.
The reactivity of elements can be deduced from the reactivity series. For example, sodium is "higher" than zinc in the reactivity series, hence sodium is more reactive than zinc. The reactivity of elements are also linked to their positions in the Periodic Table. For example, in group I (alkali metals), the reactivity increases down the group. On the other hand, for group VII (halogens), the reactivity decreases down the group.
reactive metals react with water and acids,but the non reactive doesnt.
dude that isn't a proper answer
the most reactive non-radioactive (stable) metal is Cesium(Cs) while the most reactive non-metal is Fluorine (F).
Are reactive METALS METALS or nonMETALS? The answer to your question is yes.
caesium is the most reactive non-radioactive metal and Florine is the most reactive non-metal, but francium is the most reactive, radioactive metal
water
The most reactive nonmetal is fluorine
A reactive non metal is an element that can gain the electrons or is more electronegative
nonmetal fluorine
caesium is the most reactive non-radioactive metal and Florine is the most reactive non-metal, but francium is the most reactive, radioactive metal
Francium is the most reactive metal and fluorine the most reactive nonmetal.
Carbon is a very reactive nonmetal but not the most reactive.
No. Phosphorus is a reactive nonmetal.
water
The most reactive nonmetal is fluorine
No. Helium is a nonmetal but it is completely non-reactive.
A reactive non metal is an element that can gain the electrons or is more electronegative
The most reactive metal is is francium, though cesium is often given this title due to francium's extreme rarity and short half life. The most reactive element is commonly said to be fluorine. But fluorine is a nonmetal.
Yes, very reactive, more than silicon, nitrogen and sulfur (neighbours in Periodic Table. But it is not the most reactive nonmetal, which is fluorine.
