A) One of the alkali metals reacts with oxygen to form a solid white substance. When this substance is dissolved in water, the solution gives a positive test for hydrogen peroxide, H2O2. When the solution is tested in a burner flame, a lilac-purple flame is produced. What is the likely identity of the metal?

B) Write a balanced chemical equation for reaction of the white substance with water.
