only lithium is reacting. that is the nature.
Lithium has similar properties with anything in Group 1 on the periodic table.
Yes. it is relatively inert.

Bacteria Certain bacteria can use nitrogen from the air to make nitrogen-containing substances called nitrites. Other bacteria can turn nitrites into nitrates-another group of nitrogen-containing substances.
Lithium is not dissolved in nonpolar solvents.With water lithium react.
Other alkali metals have lower electronegativities.
The Nitrogen Group.

Lithium reacts with many non metallic elements; generally it forms ionic compounds. Some examples :- The halogens, forming halide salts, e.g. Lithium chloride Oxygen; forming lithium oxide, Li2O; lithium peroxide Li2O2 Sulfur, forming lithium sulfide, Li2S Nitrogen, forming Li3N Hydrogen; forming LiH (contains the hydride H- ion) Carbon;carbide Li2C2, alkyl lithium compounds e.g. LiCH3

lithium is lithium
Phosphorus is in the Other Nonmetals or also called the nitrogen group.

calcium and lithium are both metals and dont form bond with each other. sodium and flourine form ionic compound, sodium fluoride. nitrogen and oxygen form covalent bond in the nitrogen oxides. helium and argon are both nonmetals / noble gases and dont form bond with each other.
Nitrogen differs from the rest of the members of its group due to it's small size, high electronegativity, high ionization enthalpy and non availability of d-orbitals. It has an ability to form p(pi)-p(pi) bonds with itself and hence it is inert at room temperature. Other elements if its group are singly bonded.
Alkali metals are: lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, caesium and francium.
