Summary
A small piece of lithium reacting with water on a spice jar lid. The knife in the background was only used to dig the lithium out of the petroleum jelly. The lithium is taken carefully from a lithium battery. This reaction is typical of alkali metals, although most alkali metals react faster than this.
