as metal music: heavy metal, death metal, thrash metal, progressive metal, and so on.
There is no such rule. The most valuable metals - silver, gold and the white metals - are also the least reactive. More reactive metals do have a floor on their price though becasue the most reactive metals need more advanced techniques to extract them. For example, iron is relatively unreactive so can be extracted fairly cheaply in a blast furnace. Aluminium is more reactive, and needs to be extracted via electrolysis, which is a much more energy and cost intensive process. As a result aluminium costs far more than iron (or steel) even though it is a much more abundant element in the Earth's crust.
can you explain which value you mean?
-the form of electrons on the atoms outer shell. as an occasion, sodium has a million electron on its outer shell. that recommend it desires to loss a million electron to grow to be reliable so it very reactive .... magnesium has 2 electron on its outer s
For the most part the reactivity of metals decrease their value. Highly reactive metals are valuable to the chemical industry to make compounds. Metals that are very unreactive like gold and platinum are very valuable as Jewellery. Semi metals or semi conductors are valuable to the electronics industry. Reactivity however on its own has no bearing on value, what influences value is supply vs demand. If there is more demand than supply it puts upward pressure on the price, if demand is low and supply abundant it puts downward pressure on the price.
