No, they have opposite meanings. "Inert" means lacking the ability to react with substances, while "reactive" means having the ability to chemically interact with other substances.

The opposite of an inert gas would be a reactive gas. Inert gases are stable and do not readily react with other elements, while reactive gases are more likely to form chemical bonds with other elements. Examples of reactive gases include oxygen, chlorine, and fluorine.
Iron can be reactive, especially in the presence of oxygen and moisture, leading to oxidation and rust formation. However, pure iron is relatively inert in dry conditions due to the formation of a protective oxide layer on its surface.
The number of electrons an atom has in its outer shell determines its reactivity. Atoms tend to gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration, usually with a full outer shell of electrons. This process allows atoms to become more stable and less reactive.
If the outer energy level is full, the element is said to be non reactive and inert. It is stable in nature.
No, they're antonyms. Inert- not moving Reactive- quick to react
Nothing. Group II metals are reactive, but the group 18 or inert gases are not.
Nitrogen Is Uncreative beacuase of the triple bond between 2 nitrogen atom,which have a bond enthalpy of 945kjmol-1,and this result for a fewer reactions of nitrogen.
A single nitrogen atom can be chemically reactive while a nitrogen molecule is relatively stable and tends to be faf more inert. A nitrogen molecule also has twice the mass of a nitrogen atom.
No, inert gases are non-reactive, and in order to be a fuel source, a gas would need to be highly reactive.
Nitrogen is an inert gas; it is non-reactive in chemical situations.
No, they have opposite meanings. "Inert" means lacking the ability to react with substances, while "reactive" means having the ability to chemically interact with other substances.
Neon is not reactive. It is inert.
Helium is inert. It does not react with anything.
Inactive.
Helium (He) is a noble (inert) gas placed in the group 18 of the Periodic Table.Helium falls in inert gas. It is stable and non-reactive.
