(June 2008). In chemistry, an alkali (/ËaelkÉlaÉª/ ; ËÃ¦lkÉlaÉª From: arabic-al qaly, Ø§ÙÙÙÙ, âØ§ÙÙØ§ÙÙ ashes of theâ) saltwort is a, basic ionic salt of an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal chemical. Element an alkali also can be defined as a base that dissolves in. water
In the modern IUPAC nomenclature, the alkali metals comprise the group 1 elements, excluding hydrogen (H), which is nominally a group 1 element but not normally considered to be an alkali metal as it rarely exhibits behaviour comparable to that of the alkali metals.he alkali metals dissolve slowly in liquid ammonia, forming hydrogen gas and the alkali metal amide (MNH 2, where M represents an alkali metal): this was first noted by Humphry Davy in 1809 and rediscovered by W. Weyl in 1864. The process may be speeded up by a catalyst.
