Oxygen is very reactive with Alkali metals. Alkali metals are given the name alkali because the oxides of these metals react with water to form a metal hydroxide that is basic or alkaline. Lithium produces an oxide, sodium produces a peroxide, and potassium, cesium, and rubidium produce superoxides. Due to its electronegativity, oxygen forms stable chemical bonds with almost all elements to give the corresponding oxides. Cesium is so reactive with oxygen that it is used as a getter in vacuum tubes.
