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