Alkali Metals are group One elements and have one electron in their outer electron shell. In order to become stable they tend to lose an electron by reacting with something that needs an electron to become stable such as a group seven halogen. The Alkali Metal then become positive ions.This is because they only have on valance electron. This makes it easier to react with other elements and more often also.

Group 1 metals are alkali metals.Common characteristics are that they are all silvery in color,they're all soft,and each will have a shiny surface when cut.Oxidation will occur with each of them and they'll become dull.Alkali metals include lithium,sodium,rubidium,potassium,francium,and francium.
Metals can be found impure, when they are extracted from the earth's crust, where they may be combined with other chemical elements, in which case they may need to be chemically separated to make it the best for use.
Quick and simple answer is that metals are solid and therefore are affected by the gravity of the Earth more than gases. Therefore gases are in the air and solids are on the surface or under the surface of the Earth.
The elements in Group 1 of the periodic table are called the alkali metals. The elements that make up this group are Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, cesium, and Francium. Hydrogen is not in this group even though it may look like it. The alkali metals are highly reactive metals that do not occur freely in nature. These metals have only one electron in their outer shell making them ready to lose that one electron in ionic bonding with other elements. Some other cool facts are: --Like other metals, alkali metals are malleable, ductile, and are good conductors of heat and electricity --The alkali metals are softer than most other metals. --Alkali metals can explode if they are exposed to water.
its definitley not acid Some metals are called alkali metals or alkaline earth metals because they often form alkaline compounds; but metals are not alkali or acids.
Alkali metals have one electron in their valency shell whereas halogens have seven. By losing al electron to a halogen, both ions get a full set of electrons in their valency shell.

in periodic table،there are many groups of elements. group 1 is called alkaly metals . Group 2 is called alkaline earth metal.
If you're referring to the periodic table, the group one and two elements (Alkali and Alkaline earth metals) react with water very vigorously, often explosively in the Alkali metals. The transition metals react VERY slowly, as water can be considered an oxidising agent, to form the respective oxides. This can be seen in Iron(III) oxide, as the red rust is formed when iron metal is left in contact with moisture.
Group 1A of the periodic table is called Alkali metals. Hydrogen isn't included in this group often, though sometimes it behaves like the group 1 elements. The Alali metals are lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium and francium.
sodium lithium Alkali metals are often stored under oil.

Their are many elements, and they can display a number of properties including: * electronegativity -- how much an individual atom attracts electrons, florine has highest electronegativity * atomic number -- how many protons an element has * atomic weight -- how many protons and neutrons an element has; this determins the isotope * radioactivity -- a radioactive atom has an unstable nucleus Elements that are very electronegative tend to be very volitale and vice versa. Elements with a high atomic number tend to be less electronegative and more likely to be radioactive. Types of elements include: * alkali metals * hallogens * transitional elements * other nonmetal Alkali metals including sodium tend to be the least electronegative elements; they want to get rid of an electron to have all electron shells. Hallogens including florine or chlorine tend to be the most electronegative elements; they want to get one more electron so they can fill all their electron shells. Alkali metals and Hallogens often form ionic compounds together such as salt (NACI). Transitional elements such as iron are moderately electronegative to hardly electronegative at all. They mofst often form metalic bonds. Othernonmetals include oxygen hydrogen, carbon, and nitrogen. These elements are unique because they tend to form covalent bonds, and make up almost all organic matter (something organic is defined by having a carbon "backbone").
no because if the metals were reactive then they would react with elements in the air non reactive metals are found in there native state like gold and silver.
Heavy metals are typically found in the middle of the periodic table. These heavy metals are often also transition metals.
