Calcium is more reactive but not as Potassium or Sodium because according to the displacement series Calcium comes as third and the last under the reactive elements of the displacement series.

Calcium or bromine which is more reactive?
I believe its Calcium, because it is in group 2, and Bromine is not in group one or two, making Calcium more reactive.
What happens when calcium oxide reacts with iron?
Iron will react with calcium oxide as iron is more reactive than calcium, therefore calcium (which is the more reactive metal) will displace calcium (the less reactive metal) to form a compound. This is called a displacement reaction.
Is iron more reactive than sulfur?
Yes, iron is more reactive than calcium as iron is a metal and generally metals are more reactive than non-metals and calcium is a non-metal.
Why would the thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate require a higher temperature than that required for copper carbonate?
As it requires more energy to break the bonds of calcium carbonate,as it is more reactive meaning it combines with elements in the air and atmosphere, and copper is a less reactive metal.
Is calcium reactive with air?
Yes. Calcium will quickly form a coating of calcium oxide on contact with air.
Is calcium more reactive than strontium?
No, strontium is more reactive than calcium.
Is calcium sulfide more or less reactive to aluminum?
Chemistry of calcium Calcium is generally more reactive than magnesium
Which is more reactive calcium or xenon?
Calcium.
Are magnesium and calcium more reactive with oxygen in the air than is aluminum?
calcium and mg are more reactive
Calcium or bromine which is more reactive?
I believe its Calcium, because it is in group 2, and Bromine is not in group one or two, making Calcium more reactive.
What happens when calcium oxide reacts with iron?
Iron will react with calcium oxide as iron is more reactive than calcium, therefore calcium (which is the more reactive metal) will displace calcium (the less reactive metal) to form a compound. This is called a displacement reaction.
What is more reactive calcium or carbon?
calcium because there is calcium carbonate but not carbon calciumate
Which element is more reactive calcium or pottasium?
Potassium.
What metal is more reactive sodium or calcium?
sodium
Is calcium more reactive than aluminium?
yes. because calcium is almost never found in nature due to its high reactivity with water, but we can find copper metal in nature.
Is nitrogen more reactive than calcium?
no, not even close
Which is more reactive Mg or Ca Why?
Calcium is more reactive. In the periodic table, Calcium is directly below Magnesium, which means that a calcium atom is larger than a magnesium atom. This means that the electrostatic attraction between the valence electrons of calcium and the nucleus is weaker than in magnesium(larger distance, smaller force). So, the valence electrons of calcium can easily be lost to form Ca2+ , which translates to Calcium being the more reactive metal.
