It is in group I. Also called the alkali metal, they dissolve in water to make the water alkali (pH >7). Also, the elements in the group are also easily cut by a knife and its surface oxidizes so quickly you would almost always see only it as dull gray rather than shiny silver which it is. They react very vigorously, some of them even exploding upon contact with even cold water.
