Why are alkali metals not found in nature?
Lithium shows similarities to magnesium in the chemical behaviour. What is the cause of this similarity?
It is due to similarity in their:(i) charge/size ratio. (ii) ionic sizes.
What is the nature of lithium compounds?
Group 1 elements are called alkali metals. Why?
Why caesium can be used in photoelectric cell while lithium can not be?
