Most readily hydroxide ions (OH-) from water. Also, halogens react very readily (1:1 ratio). They are also readily oxidised. See the related video for reactions with water and oxygen
Non metals form ionic bonds with metals. Non metals gain the electrons while metals loose. Alkali metals reacts with halogen family in efficient manner.
They metals are stored in oil to minimize the reactivity with air. When alkali metals react with air, they quickly tarnish after begin cut, they burn easily.
Alkali metals are more reactive than alkaline earth metals.
Yes
Most of them do NOT react with water. Only fluorine and to some extend chlorine do. Actually the only good 'water reacting' group of elements is group 1: the alkali metals.

alkali metals react violently in cold water
Most of them do NOT react with water. Only fluorine and to some extend chlorine do. Actually the only good 'water reacting' group of elements is group 1: the alkali metals.
Alkali earth metals react with oxygen to form basic oxides.

Many metals including alkali metals, alkali earth metals, chromium, nickel and zinc react with dilute hydrochloric acid.
Group 1 elements are known as alkali metals because they react with water to form alkali (or bases).
All alkali metals (group 1) and most earth-alkali metals (group 2)
