Question 6

What are the trends of the group 1 elements as you go down the group?

Answer 6

Increasing reactivity
Lowe melting and boiling points
Higher relative atomic mass

Question 7

Why are group 1 elements more reactive as you go down the group?

Answer 7

The outer electron is more easily lost as the attraction between the nucleus and electron decreases. This is because the electron is further away from the nucleus the further down the group you go
