  2. Lithium nitride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_nitride

    Lithium nitride is prepared by direct reaction of elemental lithium with nitrogen gas: [2] 6 Li + N 2 → 2 Li 3 N. Instead of burning lithium metal in an atmosphere of nitrogen, a solution of lithium in liquid sodium metal can be treated with N 2. Lithium nitride must be protected from moisture as it reacts violently with water to produce ammonia:

  3. Lithium nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_nitrate

    Lithium nitrate is an inorganic compound with the formula LiNO 3. It is the lithium salt of nitric acid (an alkali metal nitrate). The salt is deliquescent, absorbing water to form the hydrated form, lithium nitrate trihydrate. Its eutectics are of interest for heat transfer fluids. [2] It is made by treating lithium carbonate or lithium ...

  4. Alkali metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali_metal

    On the basis of size a tetrahedral structure would be expected, but that would be geometrically impossible: thus lithium nitride takes on this unique crystal structure. [ 10 ] : 76 Lithium, the lightest of the alkali metals, is the only alkali metal which reacts with nitrogen at standard conditions , and its nitride is the only stable alkali ...

  5. Nitride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitride

    Only one alkali metal nitride is stable, the purple-reddish lithium nitride (Li 3 N), which forms when lithium burns in an atmosphere of N 2. [7] Sodium nitride and potassium nitride has been generated, but remains a laboratory curiosity. The nitrides of the alkaline earth metals that have the formula M 3 N 2 are however numerous.

  6. Lithium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium

    Lithium will ignite and burn in oxygen when exposed to water or water vapor. In moist air, lithium rapidly tarnishes to form a black coating of lithium hydroxide (LiOH and LiOH·H 2 O), lithium nitride (Li 3 N) and lithium carbonate (Li 2 CO 3, the result of a secondary reaction between LiOH and CO 2). [48]

  7. Lithium nitrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_nitrite

    Lithium nitrite is the lithium salt of nitrous acid, with formula LiNO 2. This compound is hygroscopic and very soluble in water. It is used as a corrosion inhibitor in mortar. [4] It is also used in the production of explosives, due to its ability to nitrosate ketones under certain conditions. [5]

  8. Alkali metal nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali_Metal_Nitrate

    The nitrate ion. Alkali metal nitrates are chemical compounds consisting of an alkali metal (lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium and caesium) and the nitrate ion. Only two are of major commercial value, the sodium and potassium salts. [1] They are white, water-soluble salts with melting points ranging from 255 °C (LiNO 3) to 414 °C (CsNO
