-Valency of LiNo3 please answer
Answers
Lithium nitrate is a chemical compound formed by a lithium atom, a nitrogen atom, and 3 oxygen atoms bonding together, making the molecular formula for lithium nitrate LiNO3. The density is 2.38 g/mL, and this compound is soluble in water. (1) Lithium nitrate is considered stable, however it also reacts very violently with reducing agents. Some examples are lithium, sodium, phosphorous, and aluminum. (2) Lithium nitrate has many different uses; including being used as a rocket propellant, oxidant in fireworks, ceramics, antistatic agent, etc. (2,3) Lithium nitrate by itself is not combustible, but is an oxidant. This means that when you add lithium nitrate to other substances it increases the combustion of that other substance. For example, if you added lithium nitrate to a something already combustible, such as paper, it would catch fire. (2) Lithium nitrate is explosive, so it is important to keep in cool, well-vented areas when you are storing it. (2)
