===About the Alkali Metals===
: Though [[Hydrogen]] has one [[electron]] in the [[Outer Shell|outer shell]] it does not behave the same as other [[element]]s in '''group 1''' so it is not considered to be an [['''Alkali Metal]]'''.
: The '''Alkali Metals''' have similar [[Chemical Property|chemical properties]] because they all have one [[electron]] on their [[Outer Shell|outer shell]].
: '''Alkali Metals''' all produce [[ion]]s with a +1 [[Relative Atomic Charge|relative charge]] because they lose an [[electron]] in [[Chemical Reaction|chemical reactions]].
