lithium is the smallest element.

it is much harder and muchlighter than other alikli metals.

salts of lithiun are insoluble in water bcoz of high stablity.

it reacts slowly with water.

it forms normal oxide with oxygen while other form per oxide or super oxide.

it is least reactive

What are some unusual properties of lithium?

One unusual property is the very low density of lithium, at 0.534 g/cm3. Usually metals have high densities but lithium does not, which can be attributed to the fact that lithium is a group I metal, and in fact, the first group I metal. This means that lithium metal will actually float on water and on any hydrocarbon oil. It is less dense than any liquid element and also the least dense of elements that are solids at room temperature.


Is Li2S nonpolar or polar?
