How does lithium react with cold water?

Answer 1

a chemical reaction occurs. a deadly chemical gas forms. friction is happening inside the mixture. it is becoming very hot. eventually that mixture will explode. it could take seconds or minutes depending upon how much of the mixture was put into place.

Answer 2

Lithium salt (LiCl) will dissolve in water.

Lithium metal (Li) will react with water to produce hydrogen gas (H2) and Lithium Hydroxide (LiOH).

The reaction is supposed to be less violent than Sodium Metal. It is likely that in very cold water, it would still react, but not violent enough to explode. Thus it might be used as a generator of hydrogen gas (H2), especially if done in an anoxic environment.

Answer 3

Lithium reacts with cold water to form lithium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. This reaction is less vigorous compared to other alkali metals like sodium and potassium.

Answer 4

Lithium has a lower density than water. It will just float on the surface of the water and gently fizz.

Answer 5

2Li + 2H2O --> 2LiOH + H2

...I think XD

Answer 6

lithium reacts with water to form lithium hydroxide and hydrogen gas

Answer 7

The water and the other stuff combine and explode.

Answer 8

It creates a nuclear explosion
