1 The Group I metals show trends in both their physical and chemical properties.

(i) How does the melting point of lithium compare with that of caesium?

The melting point of lithium is higher than caesium melting point


...................................................................................................................................

(ii) All Group I metals react with cold water to form the metal hydroxide
and hydrogen. What is the trend in their reactivity with water?

Down the group the reactivity gets even more explosively and vigorus
...................................................................................................................................

(iii) Write an equation for the reaction between water and lithium.

2LiOH + H2

2 The graph shows how the temperature of sodium changes when it is heated at a constant rate in
an atmosphere of argon.

D E

B C

time

(a) Suggest why the sodium is heated in argon and not in air.

Because argon is group 0 element and wont react with sodium meanwhile if sodium reacts with
.............................................................................................................................................. [1]air
it will make metal oxide meanwhile argon is unreactive and sodium wont react with argon.

3 The table shows some properties of the Group I metals.

metal density melting point boiling point

in g / cm / ºC / ºC

lithium 0.53 181 1342

sodium 0.97 98 883

potassium 0.86 63 760

rubidium 1.53 39 686

caesium 1.88 29 669

(i) Describe the trend in boiling points of the Group I metals.


The trend is decreasing the boiling points going down

(iii) Deduce the state of caesium at 20 ºC.

Explain your answer.

solid because group 1 metals melting and boiling points decrease down the group but because

its a group 1 metal and not mercury by any way it will be a solid
