Because the alkali metals are all in group 1 of the s-block, they all have one valence electron. Thus their electron configurations all end with Ns1, where N refers to the quantum level. Hydrogen ends with 1s1, Lithium with 2s1, etc.

Why. Alkali. Metals are kept. In kerosene
i believe this may help a bit more than the last answer. the p-block has no transition metals and no alkali metals but it does all of the non-metals and semiconductors.
neither. it is a noble gas
Alkali metals are the most reactive metals.
alkali metals
Alkali metals are very reactive metals.
No, alkali metals are not the only earth metals. Earth metals include both alkali metals and alkaline earth metals. Alkaline earth metals are a group of elements in the periodic table that are chemically similar to, but less reactive than, alkali metals. Examples of alkaline earth metals include magnesium, calcium, and barium.
They don't
Alkali earth metals are named after their oxides, alkaline earth.
alkali metals
Alkali metals are the metals in family/group I.Lithium, sodium, potassium, Rubidium, Cesium, Francium are Alkali metals.
Lithium is the first of the alkali metals

The density of alkaline earth metals is generally higher than that of alkali metals. This is because alkali metals have only one valence electron and are larger in size compared to alkaline earth metals, which have two valence electrons and are smaller in size. The higher density of alkaline earth metals is due to their more compact atomic structure.
