What are 3 compounds made by lithium?

Answer 1

Lithium not occur free in nature, combined is is found in small amouts in nearly all igneous rocks and in the waters of many mineral springs. Lepidolite, spodumeme, petalite, and amblygonite are minerals that contain it. Lithium also being recovered from brines of Searles Lake, in California, and in Nevada.Deposits of quadramene are also found in North Carolina. Lithium is produced electrolytically from the fused chloride.

a common compounds of lithium is Li2CO3. lithium carbonate, it is used in glass or ceramics to make it stronger. Lithium carbonate is used in products such as glass cookware and black and white television tubes. As on 1996, 40% of lithium used in the United States was used as part of lithium carbonate.

Lithium carbonate can also be used in pill form to treat bipolar disorder. Its origins for use for mental health are rooted in 1949, when John Cade (1912-80) discovered that lithium carbonate benefits patients with Bipolar disorder.

Although lithium compounds can be good for your health, they are known to cause kidney damage.

Lithium deuteride is a constituent of some - perhaps nearly all - thermonuclear weapons.

Answer 2

In moist air, lithium metal rapidly tarnishes to form a black coating of lithium hydroxide (LiOH and LiOH·H2O), lithium nitride (Li3N) and lithium carbonate (Li2CO3, the result of a secondary reaction between LiOH and CO2). When placed over a flame, lithium gives off a striking crimson color, but when it burns strongly, the flame becomes a brilliant white. Lithium will ignite and burn in oxygen when exposed to water or water vapours. It is the only metal that reacts with nitrogen at room temperature. Lithium metal is flammable and potentially explosive when exposed to air and especially water, though it is far less dangerous than other alkali metals in this regard. The lithium-water reaction at normal temperatures is brisk but not violent. Lithium fires are difficult to extinguish, requiring special chemicals designed to smother them (see sodium for details).

Answer 3

Lithium deposits,usually in the form of complex minerals,are widely scattered over the earth.An important commercial source of lithium is the mineral spodumene LiAl(SO3)2

Answer 4

The compounds of lithium are numerous. Click on the related link to see a Wikipedia article about lithium. I think you will get the information that you want in that article.

Answer 5

Lithium is an element. If mixed with other substances then it may become a compound. The name would depend on which substances it was mixed with.

Answer 6

lithitum is an element not a compound. lithium makes compounds with other elements such as lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide.

Answer 7

Lithium fluoride, lithium chloride, and lithium bromide.

Answer 8

Three compounds made by lithium are lithium carbonate (Li2CO3), lithium hydroxide (LiOH), and lithium chloride (LiCl).

Answer 9

ionic
