The Noble Gases
4What family exhibits these characteristics/propert
ies? -All solids -Harder and denser than
Alkali metals -Low first ionization
energies -Reactivity increases moving down a
group -Commonly found in nature at 2 ions

The Alkaline Earth Metals
6What family exhibits these characteristics/propert
ies? -nonmetals -salt formers -melting and
boiling points increase moving down the
group -highly negative electron
affinities -React with Hydrogen to form
compounds that are very soluble in water

The Alkali Metals
10What family exhibits these characteristics/propert
ies? -soft metallic solids -silvery, metallic
luster -high thermal and electrical
conductivities -low densities and melting points
that increase moving down the group -the most
active metals -react vigorously with water,
producing Hydrogen gas and metal
hydroxides -extremely reactive toward
Oxygen -have characteristic flame
colors -commonly form 1 ions

The Halogens
14What family exhibits these characteristics/propert
ies? -monoatomic (single atoms rather than
molecules) -unreactive -large first ionization
energies -completely filled s and p subshells

The Noble Gases
16What family exhibits these characteristics/propert
ies? -bond with many elements -contain
nonmetals, metalloids, and metals -most elements
are familiar in everyday life -most can only
form positive ions -tend to share
electrons -have 4 valence electrons

The Carbon Family
18What family exhibits these characteristics/propert
ies? -metals -conduct heat and
electricity -ductile and malleable -most are
solid at room temperature -have low ionization
energies -charges do not follow an obvious
pattern -oxides of these elements act like
bases they react with acids to form a salt and
water
