Lithium reacts intensely with water, forming lithium hydroxide and highly flammable hydrogen. The colourless solution is highly alkalic. The exothermal reactions last longer than the reaction of sodium and water, which is directly below lithium in the periodic chart. The volatility of Lithium is well known and has been demonstrated to be faulty on a number of occasions as reported in the technical press.
