Chemistry Lesson 5
When drops back to the ground state the energy is emitted as light in
the visible region.
4. Why the second ionisation enthalpy of Alkali metals are very high ?
When a electron is removed from the alkali metals, it gives a mono valent
cation with fully filled stable np6 electronic configuration. So it is very
difficult to remove the electrons
5. Why lithium salts are more soluble than the other metals in group 1?
Lithium is more soluble because of high solvation and Smaller size of
lithium ion.
?
9. Why lithium and magnesium shows Diagonal relation
Both lithium and magnesium are similar in size.
Li = 0.766 A and Mg* = 0.720 A
Both Lithium and Magnesium have similar Electro negativity value
Li = 1.0 and Mg = 1.2

11. Why the Alkali metals have high conductivity in Ammonia solution
This is because the alkali metals loses its valence electrons in
ammonia solution.
The cation and the electron are ammoniated to

16. Give the action of Lithium with carbon
Lithium reacts with carbon to give lithium carbide.

17. Give the uses of Alkali metals
Lithium used for making alloys.
Eg: Li-Al alloy is used for making Aircraft parts.
Lithium carbonate is used in medicines
Lithium is used for making electro chemical cells
Cesium is used in Photo chemical cells.
Potassium chloride is used in Fertilizers.
Liquid sodium is used as coolant in nuclear reactors.
18. Give the action of heat of Lithium carbonate. And why it is less stable
LiCo,Li,0+Co,
Lithium carbonate is less stable because due to the large size difference
between Lithium and the Carbonate ion. It makes the crystal less stable.
21. What is Soda Ash (Give the action of heat of Sodium Carbonate.
When Sodium carbonate is heated, it loses a water molecule to become
mono hydrate.

32. Why the ionic radius of Alkaline earth metals are smaller than alkali
metals ?
Alkaline earth metals have high Nuclear charge
The force of attraction between the nucleus and the outermost
electron is very high in Alkaline earth metals.
33. Why the lonisation enthalpy of Alkaline earth metals are larger than
alkali metals ? ( less electro positive than alkali metals)
Alkaline earth metals are smaller in size
Alkaline earth metals have high Nuclear charge
The force of attraction between the nucleus and the outermost
electron is very high in Alkaline earth metals.
35 Why the IE1 of alkaline metals is high but the IE2 is less than alkali
metals?
I n alkali metals the second electron has to be removed from fully filled
stable noble gas configuration
But in alkaline earth metals, the second electron is removed from a
mono valent cation which gave still one electron.
36. Why the Alkaline metals are more hydrated than the alkali metals
The hydration enthalpy of Alkaline earth metals ions is larger than alkali
metals.
37. Explain the flame colour and the Spectra of Alkaline earth metals
When Alkaline earth metal salts is mixed with Concentrated
Hydrochloric acid and heated on a Platinum wire it give the
characteristic colour flame.
.When drops backto the ground state the energy is emitted as light in
the visible region.
