The alkali metals can't exist alone in nature because of incomplete outermost shell of alkali metals.
<h3>What are the properties of alkali metals?</h3>
The alkali metals have the high thermal and electrical conductivity. It has high lustre, ductility, and malleability as compared to other materials. Each alkali metal atom has one electron in its outermost shell which make more reactive.
So we can conclude that the alkali metals can't exist alone in nature because of incomplete outermost shell of alkali metals.
