Talk:Reactivity
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Headline text
InsertformulahereI'm not a big fan of the last line of the first paragraph under "Causes of Reactivity." Specifically: "These orbitals do not exist, and are simply models, however, they provide an excellent basis from which to work." What does it mean that something that provides excellent prediction of experimental result does not exist, and is simply a model. It sounds pejorative towards things that are "simply models," such as atoms, molecules, black holes, neutron stars, extra solar planets, the weak force, the strong force, electricity, etc...
[edit] ??
A good inclusion in this article would be the difference (is there) between chemical stability and reactivity. Im a student, but I gather:
Greater Reactivity = Less Stability
Less Reactivity = Greater Stability
