Compare the alkali metals and alkaline earth metals with respect to io

1.	Compare the alkali metals and alkaline earth metals with respect to ionization enthalpy(ii) basicity of oxides and(iii) solubility of hydroxides.
Answer» SOLUTION :Ionization ENTHALPY: Because of high nuclear CHARGE the ionization enthalpy earth metals are higher than those of the corresponding alkali metals. (ii) Basicity of OXIDES: Basicity of oxides of alkali metals are higher than that of alkal metals. (iii) Solubility of hydroxides: Solubility of hydroxides of alkali metals are higher than alkaline earth metals. Alkali metals due to lower ionization enthalpy are more electron than the corresponding group 2 elements
