Alkali metals are a group of chemical elements found in Group 1 of the Periodic Table, which includes lithium (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), rubidium (Rb), cesium (Cs), and francium (Fr). These metals are characterized by their high reactivity, especially with water, and they typically form alkaline hydroxides when they react. Alkali metals have one valence electron, which they readily lose to form positive ions (cations) with a +1 charge. They are soft, shiny metals with low melting points and are usually stored under oil to prevent reactions with moisture and air.
What else can I help you with?
Silvery solids with low densities and low melting points found in group 1?
These are alkali metals, such as lithium, sodium, and potassium. They have low densities and low melting points relative to other metals due to their atomic structure and metallic bonding. They are highly reactive and must be stored in oil to prevent reactions with moisture or oxygen in the air.
What are the metals and non metals in your body?
all are non metals
What are the classes of elements on the periodic table?
non-metals .... alkali metals....transition metals....alkali earth metals....rare earth metals....other metals....halogens....inert elements
What is located on the left hand side of the periodic table?
Metals are located to the left of the stair-step line on the periodic table.
Where are the metals and non metals on the periodic table?
metals on left, non-metals on right, some others in middle.

What are the chacteistics of metals?
what are the characteristics of metals? metals? non-metals?
Most elements are what?
metals
Roughly 3 quarters of the elements in the periodic table are?
They are metals.
How are alkali metals different any from other metals?
Alkali metals are very reactive metals.
Are metalloids metals non metals the same?
They are in between the metals and non metals
What are the three groups you see on the periodic table?
You can see the Alkaline Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Transition Metals, Other Metals (poor conducting metals), metaloids (characteristics of metals and non-metals combined), non-metals, noble gases, and unknown metals (like #112-118)The transition metals at the bottom of the periodic table are lanthanides and actinides.3 main ones are usually: Alkaline metals, Transition metals, and Non-metals...I hope this was useful!-Fuyuki
Metals that are less reactive than alkali metals and alkaline-earth metals are called?
I believe that the answer you are looking for is Transition Metals.
Are noble gases non metals or metals?
non metals
Are there more metals or non metals on the periodic table?
metals
Are most of the element metals or non metals?
Non metals
What are the metals and non metals in your body?
all are non metals
