The pair that would react most easily with each other is:

**an element with a high electronegativity and an element with a single valence electron.**

This is because an element with a high electronegativity is likely to attract electrons strongly, while an element with a single valence electron is inclined to lose that electron easily. This combination typically results in the formation of ionic bonds, which are highly reactive.
