Burning lithium metal produces lithium oxide. Lithium oxide forms along with small amounts of lithium peroxide when lithium metal is burned in the air and combines with oxygen at temperatures above 100 °C: [3] 4Li + O 2 → 2 Li 2 O. Pure Li 2 O can be produced by the thermal decomposition of lithium peroxide, Li 2 O 2, at 450 °C [3] [2] 2 Li ...

At higher (but still cryogenic) temperatures, lithium superoxide can be produced by ozonating lithium peroxide (Li 2 O 2) in freon 12: Li 2 O 2 (f 12) + 2 O 3 (g) → 2 LiO 2 (f 12) + 2 O 2 (g) The resulting product is only stable up to −35 °C. [5] Alternatively, lithium electride dissolved in anhydrous ammonia will reduce oxygen gas to ...

where z electrons are transferred, and the Faraday constant F is the conversion factor describing Coulombs transferred per mole electrons. Those Gibbs free energy changes can be added. Those Gibbs free energy changes can be added.
The lithium–air battery (Li–air) is a metal–air electrochemical cell or battery chemistry that uses oxidation of lithium at the anode and reduction of oxygen at the cathode to induce a current flow. [1] Pairing lithium and ambient oxygen can theoretically lead to electrochemical cells with the highest possible specific energy.

Lithium oxalate is an organic compound with the chemical formula Li 2 C 2 O 4. It is a salt of lithium metal and oxalic acid. [3] [4] It consists of lithium cations Li + and oxalate anions C 2 O 2− 4. Lithium oxalate is soluble in water and converts to lithium oxide when heated. [5]
