On treatment with cold water, an element (A) reacts readily liberating a colourless, odourless gas (B) and a solution (C). Lithium is reacted with (B) yielding a solid product (D) which effervesce with water to give a strongly basic solution (E). When CO2 gas is bubbled through solution (C), a white ppt. (F) is formed but this redissolved forming solution (G) when more CO2 is passed. Precipitate (F) effervesced when moistened with conc. HCl and give deep red colouration to a Bunsen burner flame. (F) on heating with excess of carbon at 2000∘ C give (H).
