What trends in the solubilities of the compounds of the alkaline earth metals can be inferred?
1) NaOH : two top alkaline earth metals' solubility is decreasing as we can see from cloudy to lots of solid and two bottom metals' solubility is also decreasing in observing difference amount of solid between Sr(NO3)2 and Ba(NO3)2
2) NaCl: all of the alkaline earth metals are soluble.
3) NABr: all of the alkaline earth metals are soluble.
4) NaI: all of the alkaline earth metals are soluble.
5) Na2SO4: solubility of alkaline earth metals is decreasing from clear to solid and cloudy.
6) Na2CO3: solubility of alkaline earth metals from Mg(No3)2 to Sr(NO3)2 is decreasing and after Sr(NO3)2, solubility is increasing.
7) Na2C2O4: solubility of alkaline earth metals is decreasing from clear to solid and cloudy.
What else can I help you with?
Compare the solubilities of the lead compounds with those of the alkaline earth metals How are the solubilities similar and different?
Look at the position of Pb in the periodic table and the postion of the Alkali Earth metals. Alkali Earth Metals are in noble-gas configuration when they are doubly charged cations. Lead however is on the right hand side, and would like to have more electrons to get into that stablest configuration; making the bonds in lead-compounds more covalent -and stronger- in nature. Insoluble compounds have lattice enthalpies higher than the enthalpy of solvation. Now since Alkali Earth metals like to be in ionic states; their compounds will dissolve in general more easily than the same compounds with lead, since usually the lattice energy of lead compounds is much higher (In case of insoluble compounds higher than the energy that would be released upon solvation, which thus doesn't occur).
Compare and contrast the reaction of alkaline earth metals with their salts?
All alkaline earth metals and their salts are reactive and they have a blue-print that identifies them as an alkaline earth metal but metals exist as metals, and salts as salts, with different structural compounds.
Why are neither the alkali metals nor the alkaline earth metals found in nature?
Because these metals are very reactive and readily form compounds.
Why are neither the alkali metals nor the alkaline-earth metals found uncombined in nature?
Because these metals are very reactive and readily form compounds.
Why is Potassium an Alkaline Earth Metal?
Potassium is not an alkaline earth metal, it is an alkali metal. The metals in the leftmost column of the periodic table. They are noted for their high reactivity and for the fact that most of their compounds are basic.

in general compounds formed from active metals and hydroxide ions are?
generally known as metal hydroxides or basic salts. They are formed when active metals (like alkali metals or alkaline earth metals) react with hydroxide ions to form compounds with a basic pH. These compounds are often used in various industrial processes and as alkaline reagents.
How do you use combining ratios to distinguish the alkali metals from the alkaline earth metals?
Alkali metals have a +1 oxidation state and form compounds with a 1:1 ratio of metal to other element, while alkaline earth metals have a +2 oxidation state and form compounds with a 1:2 ratio. By analyzing the stoichiometry of compounds formed with these metals, you can distinguish between alkali metals and alkaline earth metals.
Compare and contrast the reaction of alkaline earth metals with their salts?
All alkaline earth metals and their salts are reactive and they have a blue-print that identifies them as an alkaline earth metal but metals exist as metals, and salts as salts, with different structural compounds.
Why is group 1 metals called alkali metals?
Group 1 metals are called alkali metals because they form alkaline solutions (pH greater than 7) when they react with water. They are highly reactive and easily lose their outermost electron to form positive ions, which makes them behave in a similar manner to the alkaline earth metals.
Why are alkaline metals mostly compounds?
Alkaline metals, such as lithium, sodium, and potassium, are highly reactive and readily form compounds with other elements. This is because they have one electron in their outermost shell, making them unstable and eager to gain or lose electrons through chemical reactions to achieve a stable electron configuration. Thus, alkaline metals are commonly found in nature as compounds rather than in their pure metallic form.
Why are neither the alkali metals or the alkaline-earth metals found uncombined in nature?
Alkali metals and alkaline-earth metals are highly reactive and easily form compounds with elements in the environment. Consequently, they are not found in their pure form in nature. Instead, they are typically found as compounds with other elements such as oxygen or sulfur.
Why are neither the alkali metals nor the alkaline earth metals found in nature?
Because these metals are very reactive and readily form compounds.
Why are neither the metals nor the alkaline-earth metals found uncombined in nature?
Because these metals are very reactive and readily form compounds.
Is an metal acidic or alkaline?
Pure metals are neither, no pure element is and acid or an alkali, it is only compounds made from elements that have this property. When metals form compounds those compounds are typically alkaline.
How did alkaline earth metals get their names?
Alkaline earth metals were named "earth" to differentiate them from alkali metals, which were known to form alkaline solutions when reacting with water. The term "alkaline" was added to indicate they were compounds with a high pH.
What forms ionic compounds?
Alkali metals , alkaline earth metals and halogens are most important ionic compound former .
