Why lithium compounds are unstable?

Because Lithium is in Group 1 on the Periodic Table, it is an Alkali Metal. It has 1 electron on it's outer shell. Therefore, it is unstable because it does not have a full outer shell of electrons. A full outer shell contains 2 electrons, then 8 on the next shell, and then 8 again on the one after, etc.


What metals which is the most reactive Li Co Sb Ba?

Of the metals listed, lithium is the most reactive. Lithium is an alkali metal with only one valance electron. This electron is easily lost in order to give lithium a stable noble gas configuration. Because of this tendency to lose an electron, lithium is quite reactive.
