Low density
React with other non-metals
Form ionic compounds
Has 1 electron in outershell
Needs to lose one electron
Ion has +1 charge
React with water
Release hydrogen
e.g. Lithium + water -> Hydrogen + lithium Oxide
Further down the group you go
The more reactive the element
The lower the melting/boiling point
Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine and Iodine
Halogens react in a solution in such a way that a halide in a compound will be displaced by a more reactive halogen.
Fluorine will displace bromine in a compound as fluorine is more reactive.
