groups, periods.

Question 13

Where is Group 1 on the Periodic tabel?

Answer 13

far left

Question 14

Why are Group 1 elements different to other metals?

Answer 14

They have lower melting points

Question 15

State the definition of a physical property and a chemical property

Answer 15

Physical properties-describe things you can observe and measure
Chemical properties describe how substances take part in chemical reactions.

Question 16

Name some characteristics of the Group 1 elements

Answer 16

have low melting and boiling points, they have low desnities and they are reactive

Question 17

Group 1 elements react vigorously with water. Does the reactions get more vigorous from top to bottom or bottom to top?

Answer 17

Top to bottom

Question 18

What is a displacement reaction?

Answer 18

When a more reactive element displaces a less reactive elements.

Question 19

Name as many characteristics that Group 7 element might have.

Answer 19

Melting points and boiling points increase when going down the the Group. The colours of the elements get darker and more reactive.
