The correct statement that best describes the general pattern for reactivity of metals on the periodic table is:
Reactivity increases going down a group and decreases from right to left across the rows.
This means that as you move down a group (column) in the periodic table, the reactivity of metals generally increases. Additionally, as you move from right to left across a period (row), the reactivity of metals generally decreases.
