There is no metal like you describe in your question. Hydrogen is in Group 1, but is not an alkali metal. It is a gas at standard temperature. It does rarely behave like an alkali metal, and it does have only one electron. Hydrogen is in Group 1 primarily because of its electron configuration, which is 1s1. All of the alkali metals also have one electron in their outermost s orbital.

Why are the metallic bonds in an alkali metals relatively weak?
Alkali metals contribute only one valence electron
Why are the metallic bonds in alkali metal relatively weak?
Alkali metals contribute only one valence electron
What does alkali metal atom look like?
If you could see an alkali metal atom, it would have a nucleus containing protons and neutrons, and an electron cloud containing electrons. In the electron cloud, the highest energy level would contain only one electron.
What has only one electron in their outer energy level and are highly reactive and readily give up this electron?
Alkali metals.
What have only one electron in their outer energy level and are highly reactive and readily give up this electron?
Alkali metals
Which element has only 1 electron and behaves like a alkali metal?
The element Hydrogen (H) has only 1 electron. When it loses it, it becomes the Ion H+.
What is the name of the element that is not really an alkali metal since it has only one electron behaves like them?
Hydrogen, of course. On some periodic tables you still see it in the alkali position and heading the halogen column to.
What element has not really an alkali metal but since you have only 1 electron you behave like them?
Hydrogen
Not an alkali metal with only 1 electron?

Why is hydrogen in group 1 if it is not a metal?
It is classed with group 1 because, like the alkali metals it has only 1 outer shell electron.
What has only one electron in their outer energy level and are highly reactive and readily give up this electron?
Alkali metals.
What have only one electron in their outer energy level and are highly reactive and readily give up this electron?
Alkali metals
How many electrons do alkali metals have on there auter shell how does this affect the properties of a metal?
Alkali metal have only one electron on the external shell; the are very reactive and form cations.
