Group I Alkali Metals Beginner Quiz

15 Questions

Quiz Description

In gcse chemistry, it is of most importance that students be able to know all the group I elements with some physical and chemical properties that are peculiar about elements found in this group (i.e from Lithium (Li) to Francium (Fr)).

Group I elements, also referred to as the Group 1 elements by the IUPAC System and also referred to as the Alkali Metals are the chemical elements found in the first column of the periodic table, with the elements, Lithium (Li), Sodium (Na), Potassium (K), Caesium (Cs), Rubidium (Rb) and Francium (Fr). 

These elements are characterized by 1 electron found on the valence shell of it’s atom, they react vigorously with water to produce a solution known as an alkaline solution. Our quizzes here at gcequiz.com are free of charge. With all this said, you can now go ahead and test your knowledge. 

Good luck
