Answer:
Q8) True
Q9) First ionization energy
Q10) Metal oxides
Step-by-step explanation:
A common property of group one elements (alkali metals) is their combination with water to form basic solutions. E.g 2K(s)+2H2O(l)→2KOH(aq)+H2(g).
The distance of the outermost electron in the atom from the nucleus is inversely related to the first ionization energy. As the distance between the outermost electron and the nucleus in group 17 elements gets larger, the corresponding first ionization energies of elements in the group gets smaller.
Group 1 elements can combine with oxygen to give metal oxides. E.g 4K + O2 --> 2 K2O
