The Atomic Mass of lithium is 6.94, while that for bromine is 79.90. 7.9/6.94 = 1.095 and 92.1/79.90 = 1.15. the closest integer ratio between these two number si 1:1, so the empirical formula is LiBr.

Does 921 mean real silver?

That depends on the country - I believe 925 means silver where this sort of number is used. I believe it means 92.5% pure silver. However in Britain (the home of sterling silver), silver has always been hallmarked by the government to indicate its purity.

What is the chemical composition of peat?

The peat in the world's peatlands has been forming for 360 million years and contains 550 Gt of carbon. Under the right conditions, peat is the earliest stage in the formation of coal. Peat forms when plant material, usually in marshy areas, is inhibited from decaying fully by acidic and anaerobic conditions. It is composed mainly of marshland vegetation: trees, grasses, fungi, as well as other types of organic remains, such as insects, and animal corpses. Under certain conditions, the decomposition of the latter (in the absence of oxygen) is inhibited, and archaeologists often take advantage of this. -Mickey (+63-921-667-0-667)
