Elements of Group 1 and group 2 in the periodic table contain elements so reactive that they are never found in the free state

Explanation:

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.

HELP PLSSSS

Answer:

Groups like the Halogens, which include Chlorine and Flourine, share similar properties both behaviorally and structurally. The Periodic Table is essentially a bunch of patterns and trends and the groups (like the one with Sodium and Potassium) were grouped together because of these similarities.

Generally, which of the three families of elements (metals, nonmetals, or inert gases) has the least tendency to form ionic bond

Sergio [31]

Answer:

Inert gases

Explanation:

Inert elements have a stable electron configuration meaning their shells/orbitals are full with their requisite number of electrons. Therefore, gaining or losing an electron would take high ionization energy. Therefore they are less likely to be involved in chemical reaction unless a high amount of energy is used. An example of an inert gas is Helium.
