    The number of valence electrons determines reactivity.

    For example, Noble Gases are not very reactive because they already have a full set of 8 valence electrons.

    However, those with less electrons are more reactive because they don’t have a "full set" yet.

    Also, keep in mind that as you move down a family the reactivity decreases.
