Alkali Metals Introduction Alkali metals refer to six elements belonging to the Group IA of the long form of the Modern Periodic Table‚ viz. Lithium (Li)‚ Sodium (Na)‚ Potassium (K)‚ Rubidium (Rb)‚ Cesium (Cs) and Francium (Fr). Fr is a radioactive element. These elements are called so because they form strongly alkaline oxides and hydroxides. Electronic Configuration of Alkali Metals Each of the alkali metals has one electron in their outermost (valence) shell‚ which is just outside an inert

EXTRACTION OF METALS SUMMARY Most metals exist in compounds in rocks in the Earth’s crust. Many of these ores contain oxides or sulphides of the metals. The compounds need to be reduced to produce the metals as elements. Metals are very useful to us because of their special properties. Reduction means removal of oxygen or gain of electrons. Carbon is a good chemical reducing agent because it readily combines with oxygen‚ but it is only useful for the metals below it in the Reactivity

Purpose: In this lab‚ we will heat up a metal rod and measure how much it expands. We will calculate its Coefficient of Linear Expansion‚ α‚ and prove the formula for thermal expansion‚ ΔL = αLiΔT. Also‚ we heat up a known volume of methyl alcohol and calculate its Coefficient of Volume Expansion‚ β‚ and prove the formula for volume expansion of a liquid ΔV = βViΔT. Equipment: Hollow Metal Rods of different metals‚ Steam Generator‚ Stand‚ Burner‚ Flexible Hoses‚ Motion Amplifier‚ Micrometer
