In alkali lakes, evaporation concentrates the naturally occurring alkali salts, often forming a crust of mildly basic salt across a large area.

They form alkali metal hydrides. such as LiH and NaH.
Alkali metals forn cations with the chrage +1.
lakes form on the floor of a rift valley
When an acid reacts with an alkali, the two products formed are salt and water. This reaction is called neutralization, where the acid donates a proton (H+) to the alkali to form water, and the remaining ions from the acid and alkali combine to form a salt.
Adding an acid to an alkali produces a salt and water through a neutralization reaction. The H+ ions from the acid react with the OH- ions from the alkali to form water, while the anion from the acid combines with the cation from the alkali to form a salt.

Yes, ammonia is a weak alkali. It is a weak base that can accept a proton to form the ammonium ion.
Magnesium oxide is a basic compound, also known as an alkali. It reacts with acids to form salts and water.
Alkali earth metals react with oxygen to form basic oxides.
Because halogens form negative ions, alkali metals form positive ions; both are reactive elements and an electrostatic attraction exist.
Group 1 elements are known as alkali metals because they react with water to form alkali (or bases).
