The most metallic element is Francium, so the least metallic alkaline earth metal would be the one farthest away from Francium on the periodic table: Beryllium, Be.

Least reactive alkaline earth metal?

All alkali (not alkaline-earth) metals are extremely reactive with water, but within the group, lithium is the least reactive.


Why is beryllium the least reactive?

Compared to what? But it would be less reactive because the s orbital is filled, the electrons are all paired. If you mean "Why is beryllium the least reactive of the Group II alkaline earth metals?", then this is because it has the least electron shielding, having an electron configuration of 2, 2. Beryllium is at the top as the first of the Group II alkaline earth metals, and reactivity increases as you go down Groups I and II.


Is chlorine the most or least reactive of all elements?

Neither. Chlorine is among the most highly reactive nonmetal elements, but fluorine and oxygen are even more reactive, as are the heavier alkali and alkaline earth metals.


Metals that are less reactive than alkaline metals and alkaline earth metals are called what?

The periodic table goes from left to right if your looking for re-activity (with the exception of hydrogen). Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, Cesium, and Francium are the most reactive elements. The Noble gases are the least reactive elements which include Argon, Neon, Helium, Krypton, Xenon, Radon, and (arguably) Ununoctium. Hope that helps!


What is the important characteristic do the alkali and alkaline earth metals have in common?

What part of the periodic table is the most reactive and least reactive?

What is the difference between alkaline metal and an earth alkaline metal?

They are both groups in the periodic table. Alkaline metals are group one. These are the least stable elements for e.g. Francium. Alkalie Earth Metals are group 2. The second most unstable elements. For e.g. Magnesium. Hope this helps!
