Alkali Metal

This well-known family of metallic elements comprises the following members: Lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, caesium. The name was so given on account of the strongly alkaline nature of the compounds (particularly the hydroxides) of these metals, as, for example, caustic soda (sodium hydroxide)
