Group 1A (the alkali metals) almost always form cations (positive ions). They'd need anions (negative ions) to ionic bond with. Beryllium (Be) is group 1A already and forms Be+ cation. Bromine is a halogen, and forms Br-, an anion. Platinum is a metal, and usually won't ionic bond with anything. Francium is rare and highly radioactive, plus it so happens to be group 1A as well. Only bromine can form the anion that the group 1A cations need.

What is the chemical reaction for Mg + NaOH also with the ionic equations and subscripts?
Roman55 [17]
The chemical reaction of magnesium and sodium hydroxide would yield magnesium hydroxide and sodium. The chemical reaction is expressed as:
Mg(s)+ 2NaOH(aq)→Mg(OH)2(s)+2Na
In ionic form,
Mg(s) + 2Na+ + 2OH−(aq)→Mg(OH)2(s) + 2Na
