 The statement  which is true  is

Fluorine  is more reactive  than nitrogen because fluorine  needs  only  one electron to fill  its  outermost  shell.


     <u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Fluorine  has  electron configuration  of 1S²2S²2P⁵  while nitrogen  has 1S²2S²2P³  electron configuration.

The 2P sub shell  for nitrogen   is  half filled  therefore it is sable  than fluorine.

since  p orbital  can hold a maximum  of  6  electrons ,Fluorine  requires  1 electron  to  completely fill  it's 2P  sub shell  which make it    more  reactive than nitrogen.
