Atoms of the most reactive elements tend to have

Answer choices:

A. one or seven valence electrons

B. eight valence electrons

C. four or five valence electrons

D. no valence electrons.

The answer is most likely A. one or seven valence electrons

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.
