What is difference between Lithium and the other group 1 elements?
Wiki User
∙ 13y ago
There are specific reasons for an element's placement on the Periodic Table. this is especially clear in the case of all the main group elements.
Lithium is in the second column (or group) because it has two valence electrons
Lithium is in the second row because it has two electron shells (or energy levels)

∙ 13y ago*Unlike Gp1 elements,but like Mg,Li forms a nitride Li3N.
*Unlike Gp1 but like Mg,it reacts directly with C to form an ionic carbide.
*Like corresponding salts,Mg,L2CO3,LiPO4 and LiF are insoluble in water.

Wiki User
∙ 15y agoBecause lithium has 3 protons the atomic number is 3.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agothis is because lithium being bad oxidising agent has low reduction potential
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoLithium has 3 electrons, with 1 of these being in the valence shell. This places Lithium in group 1, along with sodium and potasium.

∙ 10y agobecause it has one valence electrons and it will form alkali when dissolved in water.
Wiki User
∙ 7y agoBecause lithium is in group 1

What is the difference in reactivity between elements in family 1 and elements in family 18?
group 18
What group is k in and what is the name of the elements?
Potassium is in group 1 and the group elements are hydrogen, lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, francium
Elements in group one?
Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, Cesium, & Francium
Which are the family members of lithium?
The family members of lithium are; hydrogen, sodium, potassium, rubidium, caesium and francium.
Which groups compose the mains group elements?
Main group elements have elements from groups 1 and 2, except hydrogen and groups 13 to 18. Main group elements are elements in groups who's lightest elements are shown by helium, lithium, boron, beryllium, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and fluorine.
What elements did mendeleev group with lithium?
hydrogen
What is the difference in reactivity between elements in family 1 and elements in family 18?
group 18
The difference between uranium and its group?
In the group of actinides uranium, actinium, protactinium and thorium are natural elements; the others (transuranium elements) are artificial elements.
What group is k in and what is the name of the elements?
Potassium is in group 1 and the group elements are hydrogen, lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, francium
Name two most reactive elements in the group alkali metals?
These elements are francium and lithium.
What two characteristics of the elements in the first group?
Hydrogen & Lithium 😄
Which of these elements would form an ionic compound with lithium?
Almost every non metal except the elements in group 18 can make ionic bonds with lithium.
Where do you find an alkali?
Alkali is a group of elements, not just one specific elements. Alkali metals are Group 1A elements starting with Hydrogen then lithium and so on.
What is the group name for the elements in group one?
Group I of the periodic table is called the Alkali Metals group (Hydrogen-Lithium group)
Elements that have one valence electron?
Elements in Group 1. (eg. Hydrogen, Lithium, Sodium etc.)
Hydrogen is placed at the top of what column of elements?
It occurs at the top of the metals (alkaline metals) - the first group of elements but while normally shown at the top of the Group 1 elements in the periodic table, the term "alkaline metal" refers only to Group 1 elements from lithium onwards. (Lithium is the next one down)
Elements in group one?
Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, Cesium, & Francium
