Properties of Lithium
- In several reactions involving both organic and inorganic reactants, lithium plays an active role. It forms monoxide and peroxide when it interacts with oxygen.
- Water and metallic lithium interact quite violently.
- This metal has a high specific heat, or calorific capacity, which is one of its notable characteristics. Other characteristics include its wide range of temperatures in the liquid state and strong thermal conductivity.
- Both its density and viscosity are quite low.
- This metal's metallic form is insoluble in hydrocarbons but soluble in short-chain aliphatic amines like ethylamine.
