  2. Lithium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium

    Lithium and its compounds have several industrial applications, including heat-resistant glass and ceramics, lithium grease lubricants, flux additives for iron, steel and aluminium production, lithium metal batteries, and lithium-ion batteries. These uses consume more than three-quarters of lithium production.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Lithium_compounds

    Lithium is a highly reactive alkali metal that is widely used in various industrial applications due to its unique properties. Lithium compounds are formed by combining lithium with other elements, such as oxygen, sulfur, and chlorine, to form different chemical compounds.

  4. Alkali metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali_metal

    For example, lithium forms a stable nitride, a property common among all the alkaline earth metals (magnesium's group) but unique among the alkali metals. [84] In addition, among their respective groups, only lithium and magnesium form organometallic compounds with significant covalent character (e.g. Li Me and MgMe 2 ).

  5. Lithium-ion battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium-ion_battery

    A lithium-ion or Li-ion battery is a type of rechargeable battery that uses the reversible intercalation of Li + ions into electronically conducting solids to store energy. In comparison with other commercial rechargeable batteries, Li-ion batteries are characterized by higher specific energy, higher energy density, higher energy efficiency, a longer cycle life, and a longer calendar life.

  6. Isotopes of lithium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_lithium

    Naturally occurring lithium (3 Li) is composed of two stable isotopes, lithium-6 (6 Li) and lithium-7 (7 Li), with the latter being far more abundant on Earth. Both of the natural isotopes have an unexpectedly low nuclear binding energy per nucleon (5 332.3312(3) keV for 6 Li and 5 606.4401(6) keV for 7 Li) when compared with the adjacent lighter and heavier elements, helium (7 073.9156(4) keV ...
