Lithium is a soft, silverish-white Alkali metal.
Lithium is an alkali metal and has the lowest Atomic Mass of all metals, at standard temperature and pressure. (At very high pressures, hydrogen can form a metallic phase.)

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.
