They're metals that form alkaline compounds when they react with water.
The transition metals tend to form colored compounds.
The transition metals, including the inner transition ones.
Alkaline Earth metals
The alkali metals are Lthe group 1 elements are Lithium, Li; sodium, Na; Potassium, K Rubidium, Rb;Caesium, Cs and francium, Fr. They form ionic compounds where they are all have single positive charges.

transition metals
The transition metals tend to form colored compounds.
All metals can form chemical compounds.
The transition metals, including the inner transition ones.
Metals can form ionic bonds with non-metals. Non-metals can form bonds with each other covalently. Two metals cannot form compounds with each other.AnswerIf you mean group x can form compounds with group y but not with atoms in group x. Then group x is the metals and group y is the non-metals.The question is a little confusing as group one and group two mean somthing in chemistry. The chemistry generally group one and two is used to refer to two different types of metals called the alkali metalg and the alkaline earths. They are in these groups on the periodic table.
univalent metals, which form colourless ionic compounds
Metals and non metals have tendency to form ionic bonds. metals are present in group-1,2.Non metals are in group 15,16,17
Alkaline Earth metals
All group 1 metals and group 2 elements excluding beryllium will form ionic compounds with nitrogen.
There is no such thing as an "OH atom". OH- exists as a negative ion that can form crystalline structures with positive metal ions such as Li+ solutions of which are alkaline. The colour of these compounds depends on the metal, group 1 and 2 metals, to which OH usually coordinates are generally colourless. D block metals tend to form coloured compounds due to splitting in d-orbitals.
