Alkali and Alkaline Earth Metals
Alkaline earth metal with the lowest atomic number. This element is reactive and is malleable as a solid.
Beryllium
Has the 5th lowest atomic number in this group. Is malleable and a good conductor of heat and electricity.
Manganese
Is the second highest atomic number metalloid and is known for its conductivity and brittleness. Used in every computing device.
Silicon
Smallest alkali metal
Lithium
Helium
Commonly used in batteries to store energy for its excellent ability to conduct heat and electricity.
Lithium
Is naturally malleable but becomes strong and rigid when mixed with copper and chromium to hold up buildings.
Iron
A strong and light metal with a 3+ charge. Often used to cover your food.
Aluminum
Smallest element on the periodic table
Hydrogen
Oxygen
Has a 1+ charge and is the most reactive in water
