Lithium Carbonate USP Grade
Li2CO3 --- 73.89
Carbonic acid, dilithium salt.
Dilithium carbonate -- [554-13-2].
Lithium Carbonate contains not less than 99.0 percent of Li2CO3, calculated on the dried basis.

Identification:
A: It effervesces upon the addition of an acid, yielding a colorless gas which, when passed into calcium hydroxide, immediately causes a white precipitate to form.
B: When moistened with hydrochloric acid, it imparts an intense crimson color to a nonluminous flame.
Reaction: A saturated solution is alkaline to litmus.
Loss on drying: Dry it at 200 for 4 hours: it loses not more than 1.0% of its weight.
Insoluble substances: Transfer 10 g to a 250-mL beaker, add 50 mL of water, then add slowly 50 mL of 6 N hydrochloric acid. Cover with a watch glass, and boil the solution for 1 hour. Filter the solution through a dried, tared filtering crucible fitted with a glass-fiber filter disk, using suction. Wash the filter with hot water until the last washing is free from chloride when tested with. Dry the crucible in an oven at 110 for 1 hour: the weight of the residue is not more than 0.02% of the weight of Lithium Carbonate taken.
Chloride: To 500 mg of it add 1.2 mL of nitric acid, dilute with water to 50 mL, and add 1 mL of silver nitrate any turbidity formed is not greater than that produced in a similarly treated control solution containing 0.50 mL of 0.020 N hydrochloric acid (0.07%).
Sulfate: Dissolve 1.0 g in 10 mL of 3 N hydrochloric acid, dilute with water to 40 mL, and add 1 mL of barium chloride. Prepare a standard solution of equal volume containing 1.0 mL of 0.020 N sulfuric acid, 1 mL of 3 N hydrochloric acid, and 1 mL of barium chloride. The turbidity produced in the test solution, after 3 minutes, is not greater than that produced in the standard solution (0.1%).
Aluminum and iron: Dissolve 500 mg in 10 mL of water by the dropwise addition, with agitation, of hydrochloric acid. Boil the solution, then cool it, and to 5 mL of the solution add 6 N ammonium hydroxide until the reaction is alkaline: no turbidity or precipitate is observed.
Calcium: Suspend 5.0 g in 50 mL of water, and add a slight excess of 3 N hydrochloric acid. Boil the clear solution to expel carbon dioxide, add 5 mL of ammonium oxalate, render alkaline with 6 N ammonium hydroxide, and allow to stand for 4 hours. Filter through a filtering crucible, and wash with warm water until the last washing yields no turbidity with calcium chloride. Place the crucible in a beaker, cover it with water, add 3 mL of sulfuric acid, heat to 70 , and titrate with 0.10 N potassium permanganate to a pale pink color that persists for 30 seconds. Not more than 3.76 mL of 0.10 N potassium permanganate is consumed (0.15%).
Sodium: the sodium limit is 0.1%.
Heavy metals: the limit is 0.002%.

Lithium Carbonate & Lithium Citrate Suppliers:

They who love thee on this earth, keep calling on thee and chanting thy beads
Lest thou forgetest.

They assign the credit of their hard work to your blessings
They keep you amused.

They come to thy temple with baskets of fruits, as if you were a glutton
They deny the same to their children.

They offer you milk for a bath and burn the ghee
They hardly understand the meaning of it.

They bring gold and diamonds. They come with beating of drums
They love to advertise their offerings.

They offer you a small bribe as advance for booty, called lottery
They love to dream.

I do not bow down at your door
I do not bargain for booty
Your promise of the heaven does not lure me
Your hell-fire does not scare me
I do not even know the proper method of prayer
I do not offer any thing to you
Ages have gone by and I have not seen you my lord
Yet my love for you keeps waiting for you
