So day I will tell about the lightest metal on earth
Lithium
Lithium in the first group in the periodic table of chemical elements
except for the smallest atomic mass,
Lithium has the lowest density of all metals
winch is two times lower than that of water
In appearance
Lithium presents as a shiny metal
Winch can be cut with a knife
But it will be required to exert sufficient force to achieve that
Lithium rapidly oxidizes in air
And while this is happening
carbonates and little nitrite black coating because this is the only metal
that can react with atmospheric nitrogen at room temperature Liam can be stored
in kerosene however due to its low density it will float on each surface
now shall we look at some of the chemical properties of Liam a piece of
little X another commonly with water forming hydrogen and lithium hydroxide
if you ignite the released hydrogen the flames will turn beautiful red due to
lithium ions however if we take Liam in the shape of Findlay tinfoil which is
used in Leitrim biases by the way that will ignite and explode open reaction
with water which is very dangerous
if you set fire to a little piece of liter it will melt and then light up
with a very bright white flame to then form little oxide during combustion the
temperature of burn a liter in the air is more than 2,000 degrees Celsius
little as well as all other alkali metals is an excellent reducing agent
that easily loses electrons is surprising however that when it's melted
a temperature above 300 degrees Celsius it impractically doesn't oxidize with
the air and each surface remains below C if you ignite Liam on sand it will react
with a silicon there's a sand country's of forming an amorphous silicon in
addition little eggs perfectly with sulfur
this direction of little with sulfur formed so much energy that even our pan
melted on which the reaction was scared and yes I have also built through the
carpet with this reaction for that it's all right I have many carpets the also
very dangerous little property is that when it starts to burn while being on
wood it will pick up oxygen from the cellulose molecules that make up the
aforementioned rule as such lithium explodes creating a lot of course parts
don't try to repeat this experiment also Liam can react with dry copper sulfate
recovering copper from each soul these days
Liam finds many applications in science and technology the most common use of it
of course would be lithium-ion batteries and other power sources also Liam is
used in nuclear power lasers as well as metallurgy little compounds are used in
medicine for the treatment of mental disorders because of its ability to be
an antagonist of sodium ions subscribe to my channel to see many more of new
and interesting
