At room temperature, lithium chloride is white powder or small particles, which is the most deliquescent among known salts. It tastes very salty, like chloride; it melts into a clear liquid when heated to dark red, and volatilizes when white hot. Lithium chloride has a sodium chloride type structure, and the chemical bonds in it are not typical ionic bonds, so it is easily soluble in water. The solubility under standard conditions is 67 Chemicalbookg/100ml water. It is also easily soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, and pyri, but is difficult to dissolve in dieth Therefore, if chlorohalogenated hydrocarbons are used in the preparation of hydrocarbyl lithium, lithium chloride can precipitate in dieth and free hydrocarbyl lithium reagents (lithium bromide, Lithium iodide forms an adduct with hydrocarbyl lithium and acts as a stabilizer).
Description:
Anhydrous lithium iodide is a white solid with a density of 4.076g/cm3, a melting point of 449 ºC, and a boiling point of 1171 ºC. It is easily soluble in water. It is used in the pharmaceutical industry, photography, and synthetic related artificial crystals.

Usuage:
Lithium chloride has a wide range of uses. The electrolytic production of metallic lithium is the field with the largest consumption of lithium chloride. The only current industrial method for producing metallic lithium was proposed by Gantz in 1893, namely the lithium chloride molten salt electrolysis method.
Metal lithium and its alloys and compounds are widely used in many fields such as atomic energy industry, metallurgical industry, battery, glass, ceramics, chemical industry, aerospace industry, etc. In recent years, lithium chloride has been widely used in biology, medicine and other fields.
1. Used in medicine to treat diabetes, genetic research, etc.;
2. Used in biology to separate and purify RNA and a small amount of plasmid DNA;
3. As a mutagen, it is widely used in food (beer), medicine, environmental protection and other industries to select high-quality strains, cultivate high-yielding strains, synthesize pharmaceutical intermediates, and genetically modify strains;
4. In terms of organic structure analysis, LiCl is an important cationic additive; in the field of new materials, it is widely used in the production of chitin;
5. Used as adsorbent and dehumidifier in air conditioners and dehumidifiers.
