Alkali metals can react explosively with water and it is textbook knowledge that this vigorous behaviour results from heat release, steam formation and ignition of the hydrogen gas that is produced. Here we suggest that the initial process enabling the a

They are therefore known as alkali metals. The compound that is formed that causes the water to become alkaline is called a metal hydroxide. Generally: alkali metal + water metal hydroxide + hydrogen The reaction with water becomes more vigorous as the group is descended, i.e. lithium is ...
Alkali Metals:Alkali metals are elements of group 1.They are called alkali metals because the hydroxides they form on reaction with water, is highly alkaline in nature. The elements listed below constitute group 1 elements and are collectively considered as alkali metals. ...
Alkali metals stabilized atomic Au- and Pt-OHx species on L-zeolite and MCM41 catalyze the low-temperature water-gas shift reaction The addition of potassium atoms to Cu(111) and Cu/TiO2(110) surfaces substantially enhances the rate for water dissociation and the production of hydrogen ... Ya...

The platinum-catalysed hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) generally shows poorer kinetics in alkaline electrolyte and represents a key challenge for alkaline water electrolysis. In the presence of alkali metal cations and hydroxyl anions, the electrode–electrolyte (platinum–water) interface in an alkaline...
