Hi.

Cesium (Cs) is a group 1 and a period 6 element. Due to its large size, the interelectronic forces as well as electron-proton attractive forces are the least on its valence electron. This is can one of the reasons, why it forms an ionic bond with +1 charge on itself.

I hope this answers your query.

Good Luck
