The correct answer is higher melting point, bound by metal metal bonds.
While alkali metals only have one valence electron, alkaline earth metals have two. Metal to metal connections hold the metals together. Alkaline earth metals have a stronger metallic connection and a higher melting point because they have two valence electrons.
the characteristics that Group 2 metals excel in over Group 1 metals.
- Initial Ionization Potential
- Group 2 items are more difficult than group 1 elements.
- Strong propensity to produce bivalent compounds
As a result, group 2 metals have stronger metallic bonding, which leads to increased cohesive energy and compact atom packing. This explains why group 2 metals are harder and have higher melting and boiling temperatures than group 1 metals.

Answer:
It reduces the need to import goods
Explanation:
When you buy locally, the products you buy don't come from far away, so they don't have to cross the country (or the ocean) by boat, plane or trucks to reach the market/store where you're buying, at least not from a long distance away.
The distance a vehicle travels, the less CO2 emissions it produces.
If the good you're buying is made/produced only an hour away, that's not much pollution produced compared as if the good has to come from a distant place spending days on highways to reach you.
I don’t actually know for sure, but I think it would sink. Most of the mass of the molecule is from the oxygen.
Amu of O2 = 32
Amu of C = 12
And since most of the balloon is oxygen, it has no reason to actually float. It would be denser than the air, I’d imagine. I could be totally wrong here, I’m guessing based on my knowledge of chemistry
