Metal, Non-metal, reactivity Flashcards
Extraction of Metal requires oxidation or reduction process?
Reduction process
Rank the reactivity of metal according to the group (Highest to Lowest)
Alkali Metal > Alkali Earth Metal > Group 3
Rank the reactivity of non-metal according to the group
Highest to Lowest
Halogen > Group 6 > Group 5
Rank the reactivity of Alkali metal in the same group (Highest to Lowest)
Francium > Cesium > Rubidium > Potassium > Sodium > Lithium
Rank the reactivity of Halogen in the same group
Highest to Lowest
Fluorine > Chlorine > Bromine > Iodine
Why the first period non-metal has higher reactivity than the fourth period?
because the valence electron of non-metal in the first period stay at the more inner shell compared to the fourth one, Therefore, it gains electron easier
Rank the reactivity series
K > Na > Ca > Mg > Al > C > Zn > Fe > Sb > Pb > H > Cu > Ag > Au > Pt
