Question

Responses

the group with carbon at the top
the group with carbon at the top

the group with fluorine at the top
the group with fluorine at the top

the group with hydrogen at the top
the group with hydrogen at the top

the group with helium at the top
the group with helium at the top

Answer 1

The least reactive elements on the periodic table are found in the group with helium at the top, which are the noble gases. These elements are characterized by their full valence electron shells, which makes them very stable and unreactive. Therefore, the correct response is:

the group with helium at the top.
