The elements of group 1 describe, more clearly then only group of elements, the effects of increasing the size of atoms or ions on the physical and chemical properties.The chemical and physical properties of the elements are closely related to their electronic structures and sizes.These metals are highly electropositive and thus form very strong bases, and have quite stable oxo-salts.In the manufacturing of sodium hydroxide, chlorine and sodium carbonate, the sodium chloride is used as starting material. Which of the following has the highest solubility in water ?

Reaction intermdiates are short lived species and are highly reactive. They are formed by heterolytic and homolytic bond fission. There are various types of reaction intermediates in which the most important are carbocation , carbanion and free radical. Carbocation is an organic species in which carbon have positive charge and six electrons in its outermost shell. The stability of carbocation can be increased by positive inductive effect, hyperconjugation and delocalisation. If alpha -atom with respect to carbocation has one or more lone pair of electron then lone pair of electron strongly stabilises the carbocation due to octet completion. Species in which carbon have negative charge is called carbanion. Carbanion carries three bond pairs and one lone pair. The stability of carbanion can be increased by negative inductive effect, negative mesomeric effect and delocalisation. Free radical is a species which have seven electrons in its outermost shell. The stability of free radical can be increased by hyperconjugation and delocalisation. The stability order of following free radicals is: C_(6)H_(5)underset(I)CH_(2)overset(*)CH_(2)" "CH_(3)underset(II)CH_(2)overset(*)CH_(2)" "underset(" "III)(C_(6)H_(5))overset(*)CH_(2)" "underset(IV)(CH_(3)^(*)
