Want this question answered?
Alkali metals are more reactive than alkaline earth metals.
The alkali earth metals act in a similar but slightly less reactive way to alkali metals
The alkali metals are generally more reactive than the alkaline earth metals. They form 1+ ions while the alkaline earth metals form 2+ ions. Alkali metal compounds tend to be more soluble in water than alkaline earth metals.
Groups 3-12 do not have individual names. Instead, all of these groups are called transition metals. The atoms of transition metals do not give away their electrons as easily as atoms of the Group 1 and Group 2 metals do. So, transition metals are less reactive than alkali metals and alkaline-earth metals are.
Yes, transition metals generally have higher melting points compared to alkaline and alkali metals. This is because transition metals have a greater number of valence electrons and a stronger metallic bond, which requires more energy to break and transition from solid to liquid. In contrast, alkaline and alkali metals have fewer valence electrons and weaker metallic bonds, resulting in lower melting points.
No. The alkali and alkaline earth metals are very reactive.
I believe that the answer you are looking for is Transition Metals.
The alkali metals are more reactive.
transition elements are not as reactive as alkali metals or alkaline earth metals.. this is so because of the valence electronic configurations. alkali metals have ns1 configurations which have easy chances of loosing electrons so as to gain the stable state. Attaining a stable state is the law of nature. hence to attain it they have to redily donate electron. this is not so easily possible for the transition elements..
Groups 3-12 do not have individual names. Instead, all of these groups are called transition metals. The atoms of transition metals do not give away their electrons as easily as atoms of the Group 1 and Group 2 metals do. So, transition metals are less reactive than alkali metals and alkaline-earth metals are.
Alkali metals are more reactive than alkaline earth metals.
no
Transition metals are less reactive than alkali metals and alkaline-earth metals. They tend to be shiny and conduct thermal energy well.Hope this helps!~ I first I didn't get it either. : )

Yes, alkali metals are more reactive than alkaline-earth metals. All atoms want to have 8 electrons in their outer shells. Alkali metals have to give one electron away, where as alkaline-earth metals need to give two away which is less energetically favorable.
The alkali metals are the most reactive, followed by the alkaline earths.
1. alkaline metals 2. alkaline earths metals
