Yes, they do.
Yes, both the alkali metals and the alkaline earth metals with react with oxygen. The alkali metals will do so rapidly even at room temperature, cesium and rubidium self-ignite on contact to air.
Alkali earth metals react with oxygen to form basic oxides.
Yes, they do. Actually, they react violently when heated and in the presence of oxygen.
The alkaline earth metals are in group 2 of the periodic table this means they have 2 electrons in each of their outermost energy 'shells'. The alkaline metals are in group 1 and only have 1 electron to lose in a reaction rather than 2. This means the alkaline metals react more readily.
Aluminum can not be dissolved in water, because it is a metal from group 13. Only some of the earth alkaline metals and all of the alkaline metals dissolve (and react!) with water.
No, they generally do, even at room temperature.
Yes, both the alkali metals and the alkaline earth metals with react with oxygen. The alkali metals will do so rapidly even at room temperature, cesium and rubidium self-ignite on contact to air.
alkaline earth metals
Alkali metals are more reactive than alkaline earth metals.
Alkali earth metals react with oxygen to form basic oxides.
Yes, alkaline earth metals react with water forming their hydroxides.
Yes, they do. Actually, they react violently when heated and in the presence of oxygen.
Some, such as the alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, and a few others do. But most don't.
Alkaline earth metal
The alkaline earth metals are in group 2 of the periodic table this means they have 2 electrons in each of their outermost energy 'shells'. The alkaline metals are in group 1 and only have 1 electron to lose in a reaction rather than 2. This means the alkaline metals react more readily.
Alkaline earth metals have two outer electons. Alkali metals have one. It is more energetically favorable (easier) t oremove one electron than two making alkali metals more reactive than alkaline earths.
It is in alkaline group.Not in alkaline earth group.It is in alkaline group because, Hydrogen has maximum oxidation number of +1.It react with Halogens.Displaced by other alkaline metals.
