Question
Chapter 8, Problem 8.62QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The chemical properties of elements have to explain using electronic configuration of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals.
Concept introduction:
- Alkali metals and alkaline earth metals are elements in group IA and IIA of periodic table.
- The arrangement of electrons of an atom in atomic or molecular orbital are called electronic 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?
