 What is an alkali metals?

The alkali metals are a group (column)

in the periodic table consisting of:
 Characteristic of alkali metals
The most reactive metals in the periodic table
Alkali metals are very soft, the heavier ones
can be cut with a butter knife.
Elements in alkali metals only form simple
positive ions (+1 ions)
All of these elements can be identified using
flame tests.
 Flame Test for Alkali

Litium : Red
Natrium : Yellow
Potassium : Purple
Rubidium : Red
Cessium : Blue
 Lithium
Element number 3
A soft
Silvery-white
Solid element with a density
of 0.535 g/cm3
An extremely electropositive
element
The highest oxidation
potential of all elements.
 Lithium Battery
Lithium is much in the news because of its
current and anticipated future use in lightweight
batteries.
Lithium batteries are especially desirable
in applications such as pacemakers, where the
battery must be small and have a very long
lifetime.
Lithium is a metal that can replace Lead
(Pb) to make battery that is lighter in weight as
well as it has improved power density.
Components of Lithium Battery

Positive electrode : LiCoO2, LiFePO4

Negative electrode :C
Electrolyte : Solid, liquid, polimer
Separator : PE, PVC, PTFE, PVC
Current collector : Alumunium foil (catode)
Cupper foil (anode)
