Question

Why lithium reacts with water less vigorously than others on electrode potential?

Answer 1

Answer:

Now, why lithium, despite of it's most exothermic interaction with water fails to make most vigorous reaction with it is because, lithium have highest melting point―in it's group―so when dropped in water, most of the heat liberated in reaction with water is utilized to melt the lithium metal, and and reaction occurs .

Answer 2

Answer:

$answer = > \: The reasons for the slow and non-explosive reaction of Li with water are: ... More activation energy means slower reactions and less vigorous reactions. The reaction generates heat slowly, and Li has a high melting point, too high for it to melt.}$
