How many alkali earth metals are there?

Why alkali metals are more reactive than alkaline earth metals?

All atoms want to do is make their valence shell full. In alkali metals they have all of their shells completely full except one valence electron. The alkali metals REALLY want to get rid of that electron, so they will react with many elements/compounds to get rid of that electron. In alkaline earth metals they have all of their shells completely full except for two valence electrons. They also want to get rid of those electrons but the alkaline earth metals are not as desperate to do so as the alkali earth metals which make the alkaline much less reactive than the alkali metals.

Alkali metal and alkaline earth metal have how many ionization energies?

Alkali metals (group 1 elements) have one valence electron. Hence have one ionization energy Alkaline earth metals (group 2 elements) have two valence electron. Hence have two ionization energy


Why are the alkaline-earth metals less reactive than the alkali metals?

Alkaline-earth metal have two electrons in there outer shell, so only need to lose one to form a stable electron arrangement. Alkali metals have one electron in there outer shell - so they need only lose one to form a stable electron arrangement
