Verified step by step guidance

Identify the chemical properties of each element mentioned in the problem: Helium, Chlorine, Carbon, and Sodium.

Understand the term 'inert gas': Inert gases, also known as noble gases, are elements that are very stable and unreactive due to having a complete valence electron shell. Helium is a noble gas.

Understand the term 'reactive halogen': Halogens are elements in Group 17 of the periodic table and are known for being highly reactive, especially with alkali metals and alkaline earth metals. Chlorine is a halogen.

Understand the term 'non-metal with metallic properties': Non-metals typically do not exhibit metallic properties such as conductivity, malleability, or luster. Carbon is a non-metal and does not exhibit metallic properties under normal conditions.

Understand the term 'highly reactive metal': Metals that react vigorously with water or oxygen are considered highly reactive. Sodium is an alkali metal known for its high reactivity, especially with water.
