Was the alkali metals are very stable and no react easily with other elements?

No.


What are the Atomic characteristic of metals?

Melals have free electrons. Hence metals react easily by giving electrons.


What happens when the alkali metals react with chlorine?

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.


Why do non metals not react with water while metals do?

Non-metals typically do not react with water because they lack the ability to easily lose electrons, which is necessary for the formation of ions that can interact with water molecules. In contrast, metals tend to have a lower ionization energy, allowing them to readily lose electrons and form cations that can engage in chemical reactions with water. Additionally, the bonding characteristics of non-metals often lead to stable molecular forms that do not readily interact with water, whereas metals can form oxides and hydroxides when they react with water.


What does a alkaline earth metal react to easily?

Alkaline earth metals react easily with water and oxygen in the air to form oxides or hydroxides. They are less reactive than alkali metals, but still exhibit a high reactivity compared to other elements.


What elements react the best with the alkali metals?

Non metals form ionic bonds with metals. Non metals gain the electrons while metals loose. Alkali metals reacts with halogen family in efficient manner.


What two families of elements react easily with each other to form compounds?

Alkali metals and halogens.

Why don't carbonic acids react with metals?

Carbonic acid does react with metals as similar to the other acids. But in nature, carbonic acid molecule is unstable. It has an equilibrium where carbonic acid dissociates into a water molecule and a carbon dioxide molecule.
