Why did Dmitri mendeleev think gold and silver were alkali metals?
Dmitri Mendeleev did not think gold and silver were alkali metals. He classified gold and silver as transition metals in his periodic table based on their chemical and physical properties. Alkali metals are a different group of elements.
What are physical properties for alkali metals?
Alkali metals are powerful reducing agents, they give up one electron easily. They are extremely reactive.
What are features of the alkali metals?
Alkali metals have only one valence electron and all of these elements are highly reactive. All of them are metals. Except lithium, other elements can be cut by a blade. They have a lesser density than water.
How chemically active are alkali metals?
Alkali metals are the most reactive metals.
What are more reactive alkali metals or alkline earth metals?
alkali metals
Is alkali the only earth metal?
No, alkali metals are not the only earth metals. Earth metals include both alkali metals and alkaline earth metals. Alkaline earth metals are a group of elements in the periodic table that are chemically similar to, but less reactive than, alkali metals. Examples of alkaline earth metals include magnesium, calcium, and barium.
How are alkali metals different any from other metals?
Alkali metals are very reactive metals.
How do alkali metals react with other alkali metals?
They don't
Why are earth alkali metals called earth alkali metals?
Alkali earth metals are named after their oxides, alkaline earth.
What are the group of soft silvery reactive metals known as?
alkali metals
What are common physical and chemical features of alkali metals?
Examples: react violently with water, low density, low melting point, low ionization energy, monovalent, group 1, etc.
Are alkali metals in groupe 1 elements?
Alkali metals are the metals in family/group I.Lithium, sodium, potassium, Rubidium, Cesium, Francium are Alkali metals.
