Explanation:

The periodic table is arranged on the basis of atomic numbers (number of protons in the nucleus). One of the valuable consequences of this arrangement is that we can learn a lot about the electron distribution in these atoms. The colors in the table below indicate the different groupings of atoms based on the location and number of electrons in the atom.

Alkali metals on the periodic table

If we look at Group I (red column), we see that it is labeled alkali metals . Also note the green H above the alkali metals. All of these elements have a similar configuration of outer-shell electrons (see Table 1). In each case, there is one electron in the outer orbital and that is an s -orbital electron. Hydrogen is not an alkali metal itself, but has some similar properties due to its simple one proton (loctated in the nucleus), one electron arrangement. The lone electron exists in a s -orbital around the nucleus. For lithium, there are two 1 s electrons in an inner orbit and one 2 s electron in the outer orbit. The same pattern holds for sodium and potassium.
