These are the highly reactive elements located in Group 1 of the periodic table. These elements have one electron in their outer

energy level which makes them highly reactive with water and halogens.

"These" should be referring to Alkali Metals.

They include metals such as Lithium, Sodium, Potassium etc.
They're classified as Group I elements because they all have one outmost shell electrons. This is why these metals are so reactive because they only need to lose one electron in order to achieve the octet of electrons (or duplet for Lithium), which means complete outmost shell electrons (2 or the 1st shell, others are 8). 

The reason why they're especially reactive to Halogens (Group VII) elements are that Halogens have 7 outmost shell electrons, which only needs one more electron in order to get to the octet of electrons. So, if an Alkali metal reacts with a Halogen, the metal would give one of their electrons to the Halogen, that way, both of the elements can have an octet of electrons (or duplet).

What is your abi? what does this value tell you about your risk of peripheral artery disease?
zubka84 [21]

ABI means Ankle-Brachial Index. ABI is a test used to diagnose peripheral artery disease. The ABI compares blood pressure in the ankle to blood pressure in the arm, shows how well blood is flowing in the limbs and indicates if there is any or no blockage or rigid arteries. The amount of blockage establishes the level of peripheral artery disease.
