Solution:
Reduction potential of metal ions are provided below. Higher the value to reduction potential, greater is the tendency of metal to remain in reduced state.
In present case,
reduction potential of Au is maximum, hence it is least prone to undergo oxidation. Hence, it is
least reactive.
On other hand,
reduction potential of Na is minimum, hence it is most prone to undergo oxidation. Hence, it is
most reactive.
To count the number of valence electrons we look at the electronic configuration and add the electrons form the electronic shell with the highest principal quantum number.
Rb: [Kr] 5s¹ - 1 valence electron
Xe: [Kr] 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p⁶ - 8 valence electrons
Sb: [Kr] 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p³ - 5 valence electrons
I: [Kr] 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p⁵ - 7 valence electrons
In: [Kr] 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p¹ - 3 valence electrons
Rank from most to fewest valence electrons:
Xe > I > Sb > In > Rb

Lets take a moment to list all the characteristics of the group 18 (also known as noble gases and/or group 8) elements:
- They have 8 valence electrons.
- Don't need ANY more electrons because their octet is full (stable).
- Are stable
- Not reactive
- Known as the noble gases
Now.. lets take some time to think about why elements want to form ions:
Elements form ions to either gain or lose valence electrons to the element they bond with. This helps them GAIN a full octet. What is a full octet, you may ask? An octet is when an element has all 8 valence electrons and is stable, making it nonreactive.
Why would an element with a full octet want to bond? It already has a full octet, it does not need to bond.
That, my fellow Brainly user, is why the noble gases do not need to bond.
I really do hope this helps! Enjoy, and good luck on the studies.
Answer:
oatmeal with raisins is a heterogeneous mixture. The raisins may be solid, but turn the bowl over and you will see the mixture as a whole most definitely acts like a liquid. Mud puddles are a heterogeneous mixture.
