Answer:

The first column on the periodic table of the chemical elements is collectively called the alkali metal group: lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium. Because their outer electron structure is similar, they all have somewhat similar chemical and physical properties.

The similarities between Lithium, sodium, and potassium are that they belong to the same groups of alkali metals and possess the same physical form.

Explanation:

  • Lithium, sodium, and potassium are silver metals having low melting points. When the presence of oxygen they form oxides.
  • Because of lower ionization energy, these metals are highly reactive. And in the outermost orbit, they possess only one electron.
  • Alkali metals are highly reactive to air and moisture and sensitive to water for this reason these metals are stored in kerosene oil.
  • The reaction of lithium, sodium, and potassium is rapid when they are added to water.
