Why doesnt the metal bucket melt when carrying melted metal?
Their the same thing, only melted. The molten metal is hot, but the only things metal cannot carry is something at the temperature of lava or higher.
What happens to the valence electron in an alkali metal when it combines with a halogen gas?
This electron is lost.
Is silver a alkali metal?
gold is an alkali metal since it has one valence electron
Does rubidium have one valence electron?
Yes. Rubidium is an alkali metal, and all alkali metals have one valence electron.
Not an alkali metal with only 1 electron?
Hydrogen
What is like a alkali metal but has 1 electron?
Hydrogen.
What charge do alkali metals form when they react with a halogen?
here r the possisble answers: both atoms lose 1 electron a covalent bond forms metal gains an electron and the nonmetal loses an electron metal loses an electron and non metal gains an electron
The outer electron configuration of an alkali metal has?
1 electron in the s orbital
What is the group that has one electron in its outer level?

What alkali metal requires 4 electron shells?
potasium
How many valence electrons does the element cesium have?
A cesium atom has 1 valence electron. It is an alkali metal, and all alkali metals have 1 valence electron. The electron configuration for cesium is (Rn)7s1. The single electron in the 7s sublevel is its valence electron.
What happens to the electrons in the outer shell when the alkali metals react with other elements?
the alkali metals have 1 electron in their outer most shell. in order to obtain a full outer shell they have to lose this electron. so when they react with another metal they lose this electron and the outer most shell.
How many electrons do alkali metals have on there auter shell how does this affect the properties of a metal?
Alkali metal have only one electron on the external shell; the are very reactive and form cations.
