4 0

Answer:

<u>Physical Properties</u>

Alkali metals are good conductors of heat and electricity while halogens are poor conductors of heat and electricity.

Only specific to Alkali metals: They are soft and can be cut by knife.

<u>Chemical</u><u> </u><u>Properties</u>

Alkali metals have 1 valence electron while halogens have 7 valence electrons.

Alkali metals react with non-metals to form ionic compounds while halogens react with non-metals to form covalent compounds.

You can also look at the trends ( melting/boiling point, reactivity) down their group.

Dmitriy789 [7]

For the most part, non-metals (excluding Nobel gases) are the most likely to form covalent bonds. Pure covalent bonds are formed between atoms with the same electronegativity, ie. they are trying to hold on to the electrons in the bond with the same strength.

Explain how the copper could be in the lake sample near the picnic area but not have been detected by this test.
Masja [62]

Answer:

May be the instrument is incorrect or may be error in it.

Explanation:

The copper have not been detected by this test because the test may be not for the detection of copper, may be it is used for identification of another minerals. If there is copper in the lake sample but can't be detected in the test so it means that the instrument which is used for detection is not the right one  or having error in that instrument. Every mineral has a specific type of instrument that detect its presence, if we use incorrect instrument for the mineral then we can't detect the presence of that specific mineral.
