Lorenzo is making a prediction. “I learned that nonmetals increase in reactivity when moving from left to right. So I predict that xenon will be more reactive than iodine.” Is Lorenzo correct? If so, why? If not, explain his error.

No, he isn't, because Xenon is a Noble Gas, meaning it doesn't react with anything else, as it already has a full outer shell

Xenon is a noble gas with a complete outer shell, and it is not more reactive than iodine. So Lorenzo is wrong.

What is xenon?

Xenon is a chemical element with the symbol Xe and atomic number 54.

It is colorless, odorless noble gas.

It is present in the trace levels in the Earth atmosphere.

Xenon is not a nonmetal, and it has a full outer shell.

Thus, it is not more reactive than iodine and Lorenzo's prediction is wrong.
