If Methyl lithium is treated with Dry ice it will give Acetic Acid as product.
Formula of Methyl Lithium is CH₃Li and Dry ice is solidified CO₂ under proper conditions.
At first they both react to give Lithium acetate.
CH₃Li + CO₂ ⇄ CH₃CO₂⁻Li⁺
When it is treated with mild acid or acidic water it gives Acetic Acid as the product.
CH₃CO₂⁻Li⁺ + H⁺ ⇄ CH₃COOH
So, If Methyl lithium is treated with Dry ice it will give Acetic Acid (CH₃COOH) as product.
