This reaction also produces hydrogen gas, which can ignite if the reaction is sufficiently exothermic. All elements in that group react with water (Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, etc.), increasingly energetically as you move down the column.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Lithium Hydroxide reacts with Carbon Dioxide to produce Lithium Carbonate and water.</p>
