Lithium, symbol Li, silvery-white, chemically reactive metallic element that is the lightest in weight of all metals. In group 1 (or Ia) of the periodic table, lithium is one of the alkali metals. The atomic number of lithium is 3.

Lithium : A soft metallic element, no.3, symbol Li, and it is similar sodium. It is very reactive and is stored under paraffin oil. It is the lightest metal element.

It's lithium, density 0·534 g/cm3.
Second lightest is potassium, at 0·862 g/cm3, followed by sodium, at 0·971 g/cm3.
At least one answerer gave aluminium as the lightest. It isn't ! At 2·698 g/cm3, it's quite some way down the list.

I go with Hydrogen although as someone else mentioned it is not metallic at the conditions on the earths surface.

Lithium as a "true" metal but hydrogen arguably has metallic properties under certain circumstances.

It was Lithium when I did chemistry - could be something lighter now
