Status update:

10/10-

 Just got out of the charger room. 

Feeling RECHARGED. 

 

11/9-

 Ugh! The wind totally messed up my hair today as I was used to grease a bicycle's wheel. 

Feeling like a MESS

 

12/12-

OMG i apparently have detention just because i got into a real cat fight with Oxygen!! she is so reactive due to her short temper.. 

Feeling IRRITATED

 

12/15-

Just asked out Hydrogen... and she totally thinks I'm her type! :'D Can't wait for this weekend for our date!! 

Feeling AMAZING

 

12/18-

I feel normal and calm after the chemical reaction due to the Law of Conservation of Mass..

Feeling NORMAL

 

Overview:

Hey everyone! I'm the lightest solid metal there is. (all the other metals are jealous..) I have a soft texture and silvery-white color. I have a low melting point, so don't mess with my temper! I'm very reactive with air and water, so you might wanna keep me away from hydrogen and oxygen. I conduct heat and electric current well. I am flammable as well, so watch me burn up into fierce red and orange colors.

Activities & Interests:

I love working at the electronics store because I feel so useful as batteries! Everyone is always taking me in small packages home with them to put into their fancy electronics. I just love seeing the joy on people's faces! 

I just love bonding and reacting with other elements! Here are some other elements I react with:

with Oxygen (Lithium Oxide)- 4Li + O2--> 2Li2O

 with Nitrogen (Lithium Nitride)- 6Li + N2--> 2Li3N

with Fluorine (Lithium Fluoride)- 2Li + F2--> 2LiF

These are all synthesis reactions.

Places:

10/10- Bolivia's underground mine - it's pretty dark down here... 

10/12- Western Lithium's Nevada deposit - just hanging out with my friends

11/9- Geothermal Brines (Old Faithful Geyser) - HOT HOT HOT!

12/24- Target- Hanging out on the racks of the battery section! Hopefully I'm bought today as a Christmas gift! 

1/10- Chlorine and I hung out today! We found out we can make Lithium Chloride. Our balanced equation looks like this:

Cl2 + 2Li--> 2LiCl

Photos:     

Create 2 photo albums:

  • atom and bonding diagrams - these will be done in class and will take time
  • fun images - pictures that contain the element

 - every photo must have a caption 

- tag other elements in the pictures

Hanging around with my gurlfrands at the battery center #gurlsniteout 

I just love powering up one of the nation's most popular phones, the iPhone! 

Doing my regular job of helping humans overcome their mood disorders! #bipolar #cure

 

 

Got into a real reactive and feisty fight with water and its friends Hydrogen and Oxygen...

I helped make this 

beautiful bowl! #ceramics
