Question
how are reactivity and electronegativity related? (1 point)
elements with higher electronegativity are more reactive than elements with lower electronegativity
an element will be more reactive if it has a very high or very low electronegativity
an element will be less reactive if it has a very high or very low electronegativity
elements with lower electronegativity are more reactive than elements with higher electronegativity
Elements with very high electronegativity (e.g., halogens) readily gain electrons and are reactive. Elements with very low electronegativity (e.g., alkali - metals) readily lose electrons and are also reactive.
