Answer:

Francium is an alkali metal in group 1/IA. All alkali metals have one valence electron. ... This makes it easier to remove the electron and makes the atom more reactive. Experimentally speaking, cesium (caesium) is the most reactive metal.  Metal ions are positively charged as they lose negative electrons. Some metals give up their electrons more readily than others and are, therefore, more reactive.On the other hand, lead atom loses electrons with difficulty to form positive ions, so lead metal is less reactive.

Answer:

Francium is hypothesized to be the most reactive metal, but so little of it exists or can be synthesized, and the longest half-life of its most abundant isotope is  

22.00

minutes, so that its reactivity cannot be determined experimentally.

Explanation:

Francium is an alkali metal in group 1/IA. All alkali metals have one valence electron. As you go down the group, the number of electron energy levels increases – lithium has two, sodium has three, etc..., as indicated by the period number. The result is that the outermost electron gets further from the nucleus. The attraction from the positive nucleus to the negative electron is less. This makes it easier to remove the electron and makes the atom more reactive.

Experimentally speaking, cesium (caesium) is the most reactive metal.

What is the most likely reason that nonmetals are electrical insulators
serg [7]
Since valence shells in nonmetal atoms are almost full, the atoms attract electrons and hold them tightly to fill their valence shells.

What types of elements are shown in the polyatomic ions in model 1?
boyakko [2]
These ions are disjoint by the charge on the ion into four dissimilar tables and listed alphabetically within each table. Each polyatomic ion, has it called, chemical, formula, two dimensional drawing, and three dimensional representation are given.
The three dimensional buildings are drawn as CPK models. CPK structures represent the atoms as sphere, where the radius of the sphere is equal to the van der waals radius of the atom; these buildings give a measure up the volume of the polyatomic atom.
