Silvery solids with low densities and low melting points are alkali metals. These are located in group one on the periodic table.
The three main metals in a periodic table are transition metals, alkali metals, and alakaline earth metals.
They are Metals
all are non metals
non-metals .... alkali metals....transition metals....alkali earth metals....rare earth metals....other metals....halogens....inert elements
Silvery solids with low densities and low melting points are alkali metals. These are located in group one on the periodic table.
In a periodic table, elements found within a group (vertical column) tend to have the similar properties. In this case, Potassium and Lithium both have similar properties to sodium. All three are alkail metals.
what are the characteristics of metals? metals? non-metals?
metals
Metals, non metals and metaloids (which have some of the properties of both metals and non metals).
They are in between the metals and non metals
Alkali metals are very reactive metals.
You can see the Alkaline Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Transition Metals, Other Metals (poor conducting metals), metaloids (characteristics of metals and non-metals combined), non-metals, noble gases, and unknown metals (like #112-118)The transition metals at the bottom of the periodic table are lanthanides and actinides.3 main ones are usually: Alkaline metals, Transition metals, and Non-metals...I hope this was useful!-Fuyuki
