The correct response is: An element will be more reactive if it has a very high or very low electronegativity.
This is because elements with very high electronegativity (like fluorine) tend to attract electrons strongly and are generally found in compounds, while elements with very low electronegativity (like alkali metals) tend to lose electrons easily, making both types of elements highly reactive in their respective contexts.
