In Group 1 of the Periodic Table, the elements have one valence electron. As you move down the group, the size of the atoms increases due to the addition of more energy levels. As a result, the outermost electron becomes further away from the positively charged nucleus and more shielded by inner electrons. Thus, the electronic structure remains similar, with one valence electron, but the atoms become larger in size.

Why are Group 1 and Group 2 elements found in many compounds but not Group 18 elements?

group 18 has completely filled electronic configuration and hence are stable. group 1 and group 2 have 1 and 2 electrons respectively in their valence shells and needs to lose these to attain completely filled electronic configuration. hence they are reactive.
