Read these like this: K is ______ reactive than Na.
more/less
K Na These are both metals
Cs Ba These are both metals.
F Cl These are both nonmetals.

Answer

  1. K is more reactive than Na. Potassium is more reactive than sodium because it is lower in the alkali metal group, which increases reactivity.

  2. Cs is more reactive than Ba. Cesium is more reactive than barium because it is an alkali metal, which are generally more reactive than alkaline earth metals like barium.

  3. F is more reactive than Cl. Fluorine is more reactive than chlorine because it is higher in the halogen group, which increases reactivity.
