Elements of Group 1 and group 2 in the periodic
table contain elements so reactive that they are never found in the free state
<u>Explanation</u>:
The metals in group 1 of periodic table consisting of 'alkali metals' which include lithium, potassium, sodium, rubidium, Francium and caesium. They are highly reactive because they have low ionisation energy and larger radius. The group 2 metals consist of 'alkaline earth metals' which include calcium, strontium, barium, beryllium, radium and magnesium. These alkaline earth metal have +2 oxidation number, hence are highly reactive.
These both group metals are mostly reactive and so are never found in a free state. When they are exposed to air they would immediately react with oxygen. Hence, are stored in oils to avoid oxidation.
Answer:
Li is more reactive then Be.
Explanation:
As you go to the farther left and down on the periodic table, the higher that element reactivity is.
"The major purpose of the cell membrane is to regulate the types of substances that enter the cells and leave the cell, thus, it is a semi permeable structure.
The structure of the cell membrane help the cell in regulating the amount of the water inside the cell because, when the optimum amount of water is inside the cell, the membrane will not allow the pasage of water molecules into the cell again.
And in a situation, where the concentration of substance inside the cell is above the normal concentration, the cell membrane will allow the required amount of water to flow into the cell in order to reduce the concentration.
Also, the phospholipid bilayers that are found in the cell membrane help to regulate water homeostasis of the cell by using its hydrophobic tail to repel water molecules and thus keep them out or inside of the cells."
