alkaline earth metal Определение На български

Examples of alkaline earth metal

• Chromate and dichromate salts of heavy metals, lanthanides and alkaline earth metals are only very slightly soluble in water and are thus used as pigments.

• The resulting fluorides are reduced with alkaline earth metals or alloys of the metals; metallic calcium is used most frequently.

• The heavier alkaline earth metals react more vigorously than the lighter ones.

• All the alkaline earth metals except beryllium also react with water to form strongly alkaline hydroxides and, thus, should be handled with great care.

• Note that only hydroxides with an alkali metal column 1 are very soluble in water; hydroxides with an alkaline earth metal column 2 are not as soluble.

• Concerning the existence of alkaline earth metals resulting from neutron irradiation of uranium.

• The difference between a basic salt and an alkali is that an alkali is the soluble hydroxide compound of an alkali metal or an alkaline earth metal.

• As with magnesium salts and other alkaline earth metal salts, calcium salts are often quite soluble in water.
