    Group 1 Elements Referring to the table created from observing the characteristics of the three elements from group 1, Lithium, Sodium, and Potassium, we can see that they all share the appearance of being lustrous and metallic, with a silvery-white presentation, and it is also known that they are all alkali metals. It is also noticed that they are all soft metals easily cut with a knife rather than most metals such as calcium or iron. All three elements are stored within oil, with Sodium as an…

    What are group one elements? Group one elements are alkali metals. The physical properties of group one elements are that they are shiny and the alkali metals are very soft. Lithium is the hardest alkali metal and they become softer as you go down the group. The chemical properties of group one is that they’re very reactive when mixed with water or when in contact with the air. Each element in group one has one electron in their outermost shell. Also, group one elements get more reactive as you…

    The atomic number to my element is 11, the mass number is 23, the number of neutrons is 12, the protons are 11 and the electrons are also 11, the electron configuration of my element is 1s22s22p63s1. The person who discovered my element is Humphry Davy. He discovered sodium in 1807. Origin of sodium is derived from the English word ‘soda’. The appearance of sodium is soft metal that tarnishes within seconds of being exposed to the air. It also reacts vigorously with water. Used as a…

    The second most abundant element in the Earth’s crust other than oxygen is silicon which if by mass is around 25.7g or 23%. However in nature, silicon never exist as a free or pure element but instead it mostly combines with the most abundant element in the Earth’s crust, oxygen, hence producing silica (SiO₂) or silicate minerals. The most prominent charge of Si in the crust is +4 rather than +2 which involve a silicon atom to bond in a tetrahedral manner with 4 other oxygen atoms giving rise to…

    Our world is made of elements and combinations of elements called compounds. An element is a pure substance made of atoms that are all of the same type. At this given time, 116 elements are known, and roughly about 90 of these occur naturally. But how do we know what elements are in our universe?, Scientists have developed many theories as to why and how we know. These theories consist of mainly the Big Bang Theory and how it had created the first and lightest elements in our universe, or Red…

    Periodic Table of the Elements My elephant drawing represents potassium. I drew a banana because they are high in potassium. I also drew water (h2o) which is very violent when it hits potassium (k). The elephant itself represents element potassium. The red color of the elephant symbolizes it being burnt from the water. When water hits potassium it creates a massive explosion resulting in the elephant being wounded. The elephant undergoes a lot of corrosive reactions. The ionization decreases…

    Why There Are No Pure Elements From Group 1 & 7 Group 1 elements are alkali metals which are very soft and reacts with metals well. The elements reacts very strongly with water. As you down the elements of group one, the reactivity increases. However, group 7 are halogens which are reactive, but they are metal. They are also different from group one as their reactivity decreases as you go down. Also, the elements becomes darker as you go down the group. Chemical reactions of group 1: The…

    Rameau’s Nephew. First, I will begin by identifying the taxonomic elements I used to examine the text, and then go on to acknowledge the relationships between these elements and how they connect throughout the text. With this evidence, I will proceed by stating a few possibilities of meaning that might be observed in the passage and then tied to the rest of the dialogue. Through this explication, it becomes evident that each taxonomic element ties the chosen target text to the entire dialogue by…
