If you are referring to the alkali metals of Group 1, such as sodium and potassium, the answer is no - in fact with a valence of 1 they are short 7 electrons in their outer level, which is why they react so readily (and violently) with the halogens, chlorine, fluorine and so on.
Elements with one to two electrons in the outer energy level are typically the alkali metals (group 1) and alkaline earth metals (group 2) on the periodic table. These elements are highly reactive due to their tendency to lose these outer electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. Examples include lithium, sodium, and beryllium.
Alkali metals have 1 electron in their outer shell.
No, they don't.
alkali metals have 1 electron in there outer valence shell. I remember that alkali and alkaline go with columns 1 & 2 of the periodic table alphabetically. Alkali then alkaline. Alkali metals have 1 valence electron. Alkaline metals have 2 valence electrons.
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.
You think probable to alkali earth metals.
Alkali earth metals have 2 electrons in their outer energy level. This outer level is known as the valence shell, and having 2 electrons makes these metals highly reactive and likely to form ionic bonds to achieve a full outer shell of 8 electrons.
Hydrogen, helium, alkali, alkaline metals.
Two!

Hydrogen is grouped with alkali metals because it has similar chemical properties, such as having one electron in its outer shell and being reactive. However, hydrogen is not a true alkali metal as it does not readily form a cation with a 1+ charge like the alkali metals do.
Alkali metals
Alkali metals are found in Group 1 of the periodic table and are highly reactive metals with one electron in their outer shell. On the other hand, alkaline earth metals are found in Group 2 and are also reactive but less so than alkali metals, with two electrons in their outer shell. Alkaline earth metals also have higher melting and boiling points compared to alkali metals.
