Alkali Metals:
“Elements of group IA except hydrogen ae called alkali metals. ” alkali metals include lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium and francium. They are very reactive metals. When these metals are dissolved in water, they form strong alkaline solution. “The base which is water soluble is called alkali.”
Te name “alkali” is from Arabic language, which means “the ash”. The Arabs use this term for these metals because they found ashes of some plants were composed mainly of sodium and potassium oxides.
