Lithium is in Group 1. It is an alkali metal. Neutral atoms of lithium have one electron in their outermost 2s energy level. Because of this, lithium atoms will lose their outermost electron to nonmetals to form ionic compounds, such as lithium chloride, or lithium oxide. When a lithium atom loses its outermost electron, it becomes a lithium cation with a charge of 1+. A cation is a positively charged ion.
