Answer right = Brainliest!! Analyze the trends of the Periodic Table as shown here. When comparing group I (alkali metals) with group VIII (noble gases), which statements are accurate? Select ALL that apply.
A) Alkali metals have an increased atomic radius.
B) Alkali metals have a decreased electron affinity.
C) Alkali metals have a decreased ionization energy.
D) Alkali metals have an increased electron affinity.
E) Alkali metals have an increased ionization energy.

alkaline metals are lithium, sodium, rubidium, potassium, cesium and francium.

alkali metals have electronegativity from 0.7 to 1, lowest in periodic table of elements, which means that alkali metals (i group in periodic table) has positive oxidation number in compounds.

electronegativity is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.

alkaline metals (far left in main group) have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons,

for example, potassium is the alkali metal and has a single valence electron in the outer electron shell.

electron configuration of potassium is: ₁₉k 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s¹.

they can not exist alone in nature, because they are very reactive.
