How do the reactivity of the alkali metals change in group 1?
The reactivity of alkali metals increases as you move down Group 1 from lithium to francium. This trend is due to the decreasing ionization energy, which makes it easier for the alkali metals to lose their outermost electron and become more reactive.
What are physical properties for alkali metals?
Alkali metals are powerful reducing agents, they give up one electron easily. They are extremely reactive.
Do alkali metals like to give up accept or share?
Alkali metals prefer to give up their one valence electron in order to achieve a stable electron configuration, resembling that of noble gases. This tendency to lose an electron makes them highly reactive and results in the formation of positively charged ions (cations). They do not typically share or accept electrons in chemical reactions.
Which element group is made up of shiny solids that are harder than alkali metals?
The group you're referring to is the group of alkaline earth metals. They are shiny solids that are harder than alkali metals. Examples include calcium, magnesium, and barium.
Is hydrogen a alkali metal or alkaline metal?
Alkali metals can be substituted for hydrogen. Any of them. They include lithim (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), rubidium (Rb), cesium (Cs) and francium (Fr). The alkali metals are in group one of the periodic table of the elements, and are all stacked up in the column below hydrogen. All the alkali metals are all organized with a lone electron in their outer most shell, or valence shell (in the neutral atom) and all of the alkali metals would like to loan out that electron to anything that would like to borrow it. It turns out that the reactivity of alkali metals are least to greatest from the top of the column to the bottom. This is because of electron screening.

Are alkali earth metals liquids?
no, the alkali metals make up the first period and all of them are highly reactive.
How do the reactivity of the alkali metals change in group 1?
The reactivity of alkali metals increases as you move down Group 1 from lithium to francium. This trend is due to the decreasing ionization energy, which makes it easier for the alkali metals to lose their outermost electron and become more reactive.
Which set of elements make up the reactive group of all metals?
The reactive group of all metals consists of elements located in Group 1 and Group 2 of the periodic table, known as the alkali metals and alkaline earth metals, respectively. These metals are highly reactive due to their tendency to lose electrons and form positive ions.
Lithium is a member of which chemical family?
The alkali metals. Lithium is the first member of the alkali metal family. The alkali metals are the elements that make up Group 1 (IA) of the periodic table.
What are physical properties for alkali metals?
Alkali metals are powerful reducing agents, they give up one electron easily. They are extremely reactive.
What name is given to group one elements in the periodic table?
The elements in Group 1 of the periodic table are called the alkali metals. The elements that make up this group are Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, cesium, and Francium. Hydrogen is not in this group even though it may look like it. The alkali metals are highly reactive metals that do not occur freely in nature. These metals have only one electron in their outer shell making them ready to lose that one electron in ionic bonding with other elements. Some other cool facts are: --Like other metals, alkali metals are malleable, ductile, and are good conductors of heat and electricity --The alkali metals are softer than most other metals. --Alkali metals can explode if they are exposed to water.
What group are in alkali metals in?
Alkali metals are a group of metals located in Group 1 of the periodic table. They include elements such as lithium, sodium, potassium, and rubidium. Alkali metals are highly reactive and typically form ionic compounds with other elements.
What percentage of earths crust is made up of alkali earth metals?
5.4%

Are the elements that make up the iron triad radioactive or are they magnetic or are they alkali metals or are they alkaline earth metals?
There transition, which is the same thing as magnetic
