The 20 questions

  1. Why do elements in the same Periodic Table group react similarly?

    • Same atomic mass
    • Same total protons
    • Same total neutrons
    • Same outer electrons
  2. What happens to the reactivity of Group 1 metals going down the group?

    • It stays constant
    • It decreases
    • It stops entirely
    • It increases
  3. What happens to the reactivity of Group 7 halogens going down the group?

    • It stays constant
    • It decreases
    • It doubles each time
    • It increases
  4. How does potassium react with water compared with sodium?

    • Less vigorously
    • More vigorously
    • Does not react
    • At the same rate
  5. Which halogen is the most reactive?

    • Chlorine
