Key Stage 3
Meaning
Lithium Oxide is a solid (at room temperature) chemical compound with the formula Li2O.
About Lithium Oxide
- Lithium Oxide is a base.
- Lithium Oxide reacts with acids to produce a Lithium salt and water.
Key Stage 4
Meaning
Lithium Oxide is a solid (STP) chemical compound with the formula Li2O.
About Lithium Oxide
- Lithium Oxide is a base.
- Lithium Oxide is held together by ionic bonds.
- Lithium Oxide has a giant ionic structure.
- Lithium Oxide reacts with acids to produce a Lithium salt and water.
- Hydrochloric Acid + Lithium Oxide → Lithium Chloride + Water
- 2HCl + Li2O → 2LiCl + H2O
- Sulphuric Acid + Lithium Oxide → Lithium Sulphate + Water
- H2SO4 + Li2O → Li2SO4 + H2O
- Nitric Acid + Lithium Oxide → Lithium Nitrate + Water
- 2HNO3 + Li2O → 2LiNO3 + H2O
