Scientists categorize the chemical elements as metals, nonmetals,
and metalloids largely based on the elements' abilities to conduct
electricity at normal temperatures and pressures, but there are
other distinctions taken into account when classifying the elements
in the periodic table. The alkali metals, for example, are metals,
but have such special properties that they are given their own
classification. The same is true for the alkaline earths.
Alkali and Alkaline Earth Metals presents the current scientific
understanding of the physics, chemistry, geology, and biology of
these two families of elements, including how they are synthesized
in the universe, when and how they were discovered, and where they
are found on Earth. With information pertaining to the discovery
and naming of these elements as well as new developments and
dilemmas, this new book examines how humans use alkalis and
alkaline earths and their benefits and challenges to society,
health, and the environment. Lithium, sodium, potassium, magnesium,
and calcium are only a few of the topics covered in this full-color
resource. Alkali and Alkaline Earth Metals provides students and
scientists with an up-to-date understanding of each of the
nonmetals—where they came from, how they fit into our current
technological society, and where they may lead us.
