Key terms: (3°)primary (1°)secondary (2°) alcohols are alcohols having the general structure r₃coh. (or oxiranes) are cyclic ethers having the oxygen atom as part of a three-membered ring. have a hydroxy group as a substituent on a benzene ring. alcohols are alcohols having the general structure rch₂oh. have two alkyl groups bonded to an oxygen atom. have an oh group on a carbon of a c-c double bond. alcohols are alcohols having the general structure r₂choh.

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.

the objects have the same charge is correct.
