Question:

Will someone please tell me why Alkali Earth metals are more reactive than Earth metals!?

Compare by periodic properties!Thanks

Answer:

I always thought smelting was a good word
Most elements ARE metals. The elements are classified as either metals or nonmetals. The number of metals exceeds the number of nonmetals. But not all metals exist in nature in the elemental, metallic state. The three most common are copper, silver and gold (which also turn out to be the forms of early money.)
