Question
Chapter 7, Problem 74QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The chemical properties of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals on the basis of their electronic configurations are to be predicted.
Concept introduction: Elements belonging to the same group exhibit similar chemical properties. This is because they contain the same number of valence electrons.

Use the alkali metals and alkaline earth metals as examples to show how we can predict the chemical properties of elements simply from their electron configuration.
Does metallic character increase or decrease across a row in the periodic table from left to right? Explain your answer.
What are valence electrons?
Discuss the general chemical reactivity of noble gases.
Explain whether the cation formed from an atom is larger or smaller and why. Then, explain whether the anion formed from an atom is larger or smaller and why.
We would predict that the alkaline earth metals would have a higher electron affinity than the alkali metals, but they do not. Why
Why does beryllium have a higher ionization energy than we would predict and a lower electron affinity than we would predict?
