What is the family name of the elements in column 18?
The Noble Gases
What family exhibits these characteristics/properties? -All solids -Harder and denser than Alkali metals -Low first ionization energies -Reactivity increases moving down a group -Commonly found in nature at 2+ ions
What family exhibits these characteristics/properties? -All solids -Harder and denser than Alkali metals -Low first ionization energies -Reactivity increases moving down a group -Commonly found in nature at 2+ ions The Alkaline Earth Metals
What family exhibits these characteristics/properties? -nonmetals -salt formers -melting and boiling points increase moving down the group -highly negative electron affinities -React with Hydrogen to form compounds that are very soluble in water

What is the family name of the elements in column 1?
The Alkali Metals What is the family name of the elements in column 1?
What family exhibits these characteristics/properties? -soft metallic solids -silvery, metallic luster -high thermal and electrical conductivities -low densities and melting points that increase moving down the group -the most active metals -react vigorously with water, producing Hydrogen gas and metal hydroxides -extremely reactive toward Oxygen -have characteristic flame colors -commonly form 1+ ions

What family exhibits these characteristics/properties? -monoatomic (single atoms rather than molecules) -unreactive -large first ionization energies -completely filled s and p subshells
What family exhibits these characteristics/properties? -monoatomic (single atoms rather than molecules) -unreactive -large first ionization energies -completely filled s and p subshells The Noble Gases
What family exhibits these characteristics/properties? -bond with many elements -contain nonmetals, metalloids, and metals -most elements are familiar in everyday life -most can only form positive ions -tend to share electrons -have 4 valence electrons

What family exhibits these characteristics/properties? -metals -conduct heat and electricity -ductile and malleable -most are solid at room temperature -have low ionization energies -charges do not follow an obvious pattern -oxides of these elements act like bases; they react with acids to form a salt and water
