a) compounds. The metals are very reactive and will react with a lot of different things. So, they don't exist freely in nature.

No, hydrogen isn't an alkali steel. actually, it in basic terms turns right into a steel at pressures like those contained in direction of gas significant planets. although that is interesting that that is seen to act like an alkali steel in many circumstances. could you classify ammonium ion as an alkali steel? No, neither could I, yet the two hydrogen and ammonium could be compelled to variety an amalgam with mercury at a Hg cathode; while the circuit is broken, hydrogen and hydrogen and ammonia would be developed, respectively., from the two amalgams.
