How did Mendeleev arrange the periodic table
Mendleev arranged the periodic table by there atomic mass
What do group one metals do when it reacts with water

The metal will sizzle and it gets a lot hotter in the test
Write a definition of a chemical reaction
A process that involves rearrangement of the molecular or a iconic structure of a substance, as distinct from a change of in physical form or a nuclear reaction.

How are liquid and gases similar
You can make gases by evaporating water into gas and if you freeze gases it turns into water ( if you use water).
How are liquids and solids similar
You can melt solids to make water and you can freeze water into soilds.
