Here’s what I found:
It takes very little energy to remove that outermost electron from an alkali metal. Thus, alkali metals easily lose their outermost electron to become a +1 ion. ... In fact, as you go down the 1A column, the first ionization energies get lower and lower, making cesium the most easily ionized element on the periodic table.
So basically it’s because part of what makes alkali metals so reactive is that they have one electron in their outermost electron layer.
2F⁻ → F₂ + 2e⁻

Buoyant
Buoyancy is the ability to float in fluids.
Gravity is the force of all objects attracted to one.
Friction is the force caused when two objects rub against each other causing them to slow
<span>Archimedes principle explains that the magnitude of that force is proportional to the difference in the pressure between the top and the bottom of the column, and</span> is also equivalent to the weight of the fluid that would otherwise occupy the column, i.e. the displaced fluid.
Answer:
In mathematics and physics, the right-hand rule is a common mnemonic for understanding orientation of axes in three-dimensional space. Most of the various left- and right-hand rules arise from the fact that the three axes of three-dimensional space have two possible orientations
