<u>Answer:</u> The tendency of an element to react is closely related to the number of valence electrons in the element.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Chemical reactivity is defined as the tendency of an element to loose of gain electrons.
Metals tend to loose electrons and so their chemical reactivity is the tendency to loose electrons.
Non-metals tend to gain electrons and so their chemical reactivity is the tendency to gain electrons.
The number of electrons that an element will loose or gain depends on the number of valence electrons present around that element.
<u>For Example:</u> Chlorine has 7 valence electrons and need 1 electron to complete its octet, whereas sulfur has 6 valence electrons and need 2 electrons to complete its octet.
So, chlorine will gain 1 electron easily than sulfur and thus, is more reactive than sulfur.
Hence, the tendency of an element to react is closely related to the number of valence electrons in the element.

Explanation:
1. Potential Energy is stored energy a object has when it's not moving.
2. Potential Energy is it's highest on the first stage because as you see the roller coaster is bout to go down the tract which is going to higher the kinetic energy and lower the potential energy.
3. Kinetic Energy is the amount of energy a object has when it's in motion or moving.
4. Kinetic Energy is it's highest in the third stage after it's gone down the tract and potential energy fully decreased and it's at zero.
Remember that potential energy is stored energy so when a object is not moving in this case the roller coaster isn't moving on the first stage when its bout to go down the roller coaster. Kinetic energy is the amount of energy a object has when it's in motion so in this case the third stage would have the highest example of Kinetic energy because it's fully in motion and has no potential energy.
