Metal Reactivity Series
« on: May 14, 2006, 05:39:17 PM »
Could someone tell me what the most reactive metal is...And also what the most active non metal is...lastly what are chemicaly inert elements?

Thanx

inert elements would be the noble gases

alkali metals (group 1 metals) are typically the most reactive, i think sodium might be the most reactive

sodium is definately not the most reactive.

Which element is the most reactive! Are you serious? Reactive with what? Be specific.
Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex
