parts of outer space where there is no air or atoms

Explanation:

Matter is made up of atoms. Similar to how your cells make your body, atoms make up all and everything. This since outer spaces doesn't have atoms, it doesn't have matter as well (at least not the normal matter, it does have dark matter, which is a whole can of worms that should not be opened)

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.
