Even with this proviso, the electrode potentials of lithium and sodium – and hence their positions in the electrochemical series – appear anomalous. The order of reactivity, as shown by the vigour of the reaction with water or the speed at which the metal surface tarnishes in air, appears to be Cs > K > Na > Li > alkaline earth metals,
The data below tabulates standard electrode potentials (E°), in volts relative to the standard hydrogen electrode (SHE), at: . Temperature 298.15 K (25.00 °C; 77.00 °F); ...
Lithium-ion battery Curve of price and capacity of lithium-ion batteries over time; the price of these batteries declined by 97% in three decades.. Lithium is the alkali metal with lowest density and with the greatest electrochemical potential and energy-to-weight ratio.
The cell voltage of lithium-ion batteries with NMC cathodes is 3.6–3.7 V. [24] Arumugam Manthiram has reported that the relative positioning of the metals' 3d bands to the oxygen 2p band leads to each metal's role within NMC cathode materials. The manganese 3d band is above the oxygen 2p band, resulting in manganese's high chemical stability.
Rechargeable lithium metal batteries are secondary lithium metal batteries.They have metallic lithium as a negative electrode.The high specific capacity of lithium metal (3,860 mAh g −1), very low redox potential (−3.040 V versus standard hydrogen electrode) and low density (0.59 g cm −3) make it the ideal negative material for high energy density battery technologies.

The metal of the anode will oxidize, going from an oxidation state of 0 (in the solid form) to a positive oxidation state and become an ion. At the cathode, the metal ion in solution will accept one or more electrons from the cathode and the ion's oxidation state is reduced to 0. This forms a solid metal that electrodeposits on the cathode. The ...
In 2019, the same Stanford lab developed a method for lithium-metal batteries to retain 85 percent charge after 160 cycles—a major improvement compared to the previously reported 30 percent.
The electrochemical series, which consists of standard electrode potentials and is closely related to the reactivity series, was generated by measuring the difference in potential between the metal half-cell in a circuit with a standard hydrogen half-cell, connected by a salt bridge. The standard hydrogen half-cell: 2H + (aq) + 2e − → H 2 (g)
