Write a short paragraph explaining why you would like to adopt the element gold and why you would be a good parent for him. use information that you learned about your element to support your request.

I would like to adopt Gold because he is a bright little fellow.  His atomic number is off the charts, making him the highest atomic number in the periodic table naturally!  He is so soft and sweet, (not sweet like tasty,) and have you seen his natural hue? Gold is so important too! Gold is noble because it does not oxidize. Lastly, gold is expensive, although I would never sell him. Gold is rare, and I believe I am the right parent for him.

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.
