    For metals:

    - Reactivity increases as you go down a group, the further you go down, the easier the metals take or give electron

    - Reactivity decreases as you go across, more energy required to get rid of valence electron

    For non-metals:

    - Reactivity increases as you go up a group. Electronegativity increases as you go higher up, more powerful exchange of electrons

    - Relativity increases as you go across since the closer you get to fill up your s - and p - orbitals the more motivated you are to do so.
