Depends on the usage. In low power drain devices operated mostly at room temperature, alkaline batteries are probably better. In high power drain devices sometimes operated at high or low temperatures, lithium is definitely better. It is best to use what the manufacturer of the device the battery will be used in recommends.

Is lithium oxide an acid?
Lithium oxide forms Lithium hydroxide when added to water, which is alkaline, so Lithium oxide is basic.
What was the name of the person who invented alkaline batteries?
The person who invented the alkaline battery was Lewis Urry. He invented both this battery and the lithium battery in the 1950s. These batteries were longer running and cheaper than their precursors.
Can lithium melt?
Everything can conduct heat except a vacuum. Lithium is a metal so it should do better than most.
Which element is more reactive lithium or barium?
Definitely lithium. Lithium is a Group I alkali metal, while Beryllium is a Group II alkaline earth metal and are on the same period. Group I Alkali metals are generally more reactive as they only need to lose one electron to have a complete outer shell.
What is the pH level of lithium acetate?
Lithium acetate is the salt of a strong base (LiOH) and a weak acid (acetic acid), and so the pH will be alkaline (>7). However, how much greater than 7 cannot be calculated without knowing the concentration of the lithium acetate. The greater the concentration, the greater will be the pH and the more basic will be the solution.
Is lithium a metalic?
No,it is an alkaline metal.
Why are lithium batteries more expensive than alkaline batteries?
They last longer and work more quickly
What is the alkaline metal with the smallest radius?
lithium
Is lithium a alkaline earth metal?
All alkali (not alkaline-earth) metals are extremely reactive with water, but within the group, lithium is the least reactive.
What red color alkaline earth metal makes itself useful in fireworks and flares?
the answer is really lithium nitrate. nitrate mixed with lithium an alkaline metal element.
Is lithium oxide an acid?
Lithium oxide forms Lithium hydroxide when added to water, which is alkaline, so Lithium oxide is basic.
What was the name of the person who invented alkaline batteries?
The person who invented the alkaline battery was Lewis Urry. He invented both this battery and the lithium battery in the 1950s. These batteries were longer running and cheaper than their precursors.
Does alkaline batteries have more power or does lithium batteries have more power?
lithium batteries have a faster current discharge rate then alkaline batteries but they cost more. The LIPO battery is used the most in RC planes.
What are all the alkaline metals?
Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, Cesium, Francium.
What can you use to test for lithium hydroxide?
Universal Indictor to test if it is an alkaline solution
Can lithium melt?
Everything can conduct heat except a vacuum. Lithium is a metal so it should do better than most.
What is the chemical formula of lithium carbide?
Lithium carbonate or Li2CO3 is a basic (alkaline) salt often used to treat bipolar disorder.
