Who proposed the law of octave sin 1863?
Newlands
1 of 13
Why was Medleev's table better than Newland's?
He left gaps for undiscoverd elements
2 of 13
Why do elements in a group have similar properties?
Their atoms have the same number of electrons in their outer shell
3 of 13
What happens to the reactivity of an akali metal as you go down the group (increase the number of shells)?
They get more reactive
4 of 13
What are the elements in group 1 called?
Alkali metals
5 of 13
What are the characteristics of alkali metals?
Low melting and boiling points, react readily with air and water & low densities
