Lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) contains 6 atoms: 2 lithium (Li) atoms, 1 carbon (C) atom, and 3 oxygen (O) atoms.
Lithium carbonate is ionic because it is composed of lithium cations (Li+) and carbonate anions (CO3^2-). These ions are held together by ionic bonds, which involve the transfer of electrons between the lithium and carbonate atoms.
Lithium chloride is LiCl. There are two atoms (one lithium and one chlorine).
lithium hydroxide + carbon dioxide --> lithium bicarbonate
lithium carbonate + hydrochloric acid ---> lithium chloride + carbon dioxide + water

Lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) consists of three types of atoms: lithium (Li), carbon (C), and oxygen (O). Specifically, there are 2 lithium atoms, 1 carbon atom, and 3 oxygen atoms in each molecule of Li2CO3. Therefore, the total number of atoms in one formula unit of lithium carbonate is 2 + 1 + 3 = 6 atoms.

Li2CO3. The two positive charges from two lithium ions neutralize the negative charge of the carbonate ion.
Lithium carbonate is thermally decomposed by heating.
lithium carbonate + hydrochloric acid ---> lithium chloride + carbon dioxide + water
Lithium Sulfate Li2SO4 has 4 oxygen atoms per molecule.

Lithium carbonate is the ionic compound with the formula Li2CO3. It is composed of lithium ions (Li+) and carbonate ions (CO3^2-).
lithium carbonate + sulfuric acid = lituim sulfate + water + carbon dioxide
To work out the mass of one element within a compound (ie the mass of Lithium in Lithium Carbonate), first work out the RFM (Relative Formula Mass) of the compound. To do this, look on the periodic table (PT) & add up the RAM (Relative Atomic Mass) of all of the atoms in the compound (the RAM is the larger of the 2 numbers in each box on the PT). So, if the formula for one molecule of Lithium Carbonate is Li2CO3, then the RFM is Li + Li + C + O + O + O = 7 + 7 + 12 + 16 + 16 + 16 = 74 Next work out what percentage of the compound is the element you want to know. So, Lithium accounts for 14 (2 Lithiums = 7 x 2) out of every 74 grams of Lithium Carbonate. As a percentage, this is ( 14 / 74 ) x 100 = 18.9 %. So, 18.9% of 1.55g [ ( 1.55 / 100 ) x 18.9 ] = 0.29g So there is 0.29g of Lithium is 1.55g of Lithium Carbonate.
