: '''Alkali Metals''' are all highly [[Reactivity|reactive]] and will [[OxidisationOxidation|oxidise]] quickly in the presence of [[Oxygen]].

*Even though the [[Electrical Charge|charge]] of the [[Atomic Nucleus|nucleus]] increases the outer [[electron]] is shielded from most of the [[Positive Charge|positive charge]] of the [[Atomic Nucleus|nucleus]] by [[electron]]s in the [[Inner Shell|inner shells]].

: '''Alkali Metals''' all appear shiny (before they [[oxidisationoxidation|oxidise]]).*====[[Group 27]]: The [[Alkali Earth MetalHalogen]]s all react strongly with steam and acids. =========Chemical Properties=====: The [[reactivity]] increases of '''Halogens''' decreases as you go down the [[Periodic Table]].: '''groupHalogens'''all [[Chemical Reaction|react]] strongly as [[Bleaching Agent|bleaching agents]].*: '''Halogens''' all produce [[acid]]s when combined with [[Group 7Hydrogen]].: The '''Halogens''' are [[toxic]] to [[bacteria]] and are used in [[Halogendisinfectant]]s all act as bleaching agents and kill bacteria. {| class="wikitable"|-|[[File:Group7ElectronShells.png|center|100px]]| style="height:20px; width:500px; text-align:left;" |In a [[Chemical Reaction|chemical reaction]] an extra [[electron]] is added to the [[Outer Shell|outer shell]]. The [[reactivity ]] decreases as you go down the group because:*The outer [[electron]]s are further away from the [[Atomic Nucleus|nucleus]] with each additional [[Electron Orbital|electron shell]] making the [[force]] of [[attract]]ion weaker.
