Answer:

the alkali metals are a group of chemical elements in the periodic table with the following physical and chemical properties:

   shiny.

   soft.

   silvery.

   highly reactive at standard temperature and pressure.

   readily lose their outermost electron to form cations with a charge of +1.

The alkali metals are the six metals of Group 1 in the Periodic Table – lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, ceasium (cesium), and francium. Only lithium, sodium and potassium are safe enough to keep in the school lab. Rubidium, ceasium and francium are violently reactive – and francium is radioactive.

Answer:

please mark it as brainliest

Explanation:

Alkali metals are silvery, soft, and not very dense. They can easily be cut with a butter knife, and cesium can even melt in the palm of your hand. They have low melting points and are incredibly reactive--so reactive that they must be stored in special solutions or containers to prevent an unintended reaction.
