All of the alkali metals :- shiny, silver-colored metals.- high electrical and thermal conductivities.
But, they are also very atypical :Ex: the alkali metals are very soft, and they become softer
as one progresses down the group :Thus, Li can be cut with a knife, whereasK can be squashed like soft butter.

Low m.pLow mp and soft is due to :- Weak metalic bonding- Small enthalpy of atomization
For typical metals, Hatomization = 400 - 600kJ/mol

Feature of alkali metal compounds
Stabilization of Large AnionsCations of the alkali metals (except Li+) :
the largest sizes lowest charge densities, stabilize large low-charge anions.
All are metals have common features.Ions ox.nu = +1,compounds : stable, ionic solids, colorless (without colored anion CrO4-, MnO4-)

Ion HydrationAll ions are hydrated when dissolved in water.However, this is not always true in the solid phase.Hydration in the crystalline solid balance of lattice energy (U) andHhydration of ionsU = electrostatic attraction between the cations and anions:ion c.d U .

All ions are hydrated when dissolved in water.However, this is not always true in the solid phase.Hydration in the crystalline solid balance of lattice energy (U) andHhydration of ionsU = electrostatic attraction between the cations and anions:ion c.d U .U favors the loss of an ions hydration sphere on crystallization to give thesmall (U ) anhydrous ion.But Hhydration depends on the attraction between the ion and thesurrounding polar water molecules.A major factor contributing to the strength of the ion-dipole attraction is thecharge density of the ions.In this ionic tug-of-war, we nd that high charge density usually favorsretention of all or part of the hydration sphere in thesolid phase, while salts of low-charge ions tend to be anhydrous.
Ion HydrationLow charge densities (compared to other metals).majority of solid alkali metal salts are anhydrous !

Although there is a strong dependence oflattice energy on ionic charge, there is asecondary relationship to the cation/anionradius ratio;mismatch in ionic sizes will leadto a lower than expected lattice energy.

Cells pump sodium ions out of thecytoplasm and pump potassium ions in. It isthis difference in total alkali metal ionconcentrations inside and outside cells thatproduces an electrical potential across thecell membrane.
