MgO melts at a much higher temperature (2852 degrees Celsius) than NaF because Mg2+ is more positively charged than Na+ & O2- ion is smaller than the F-ion. report this answer.
Lithium fluoride, the lithium salt of hydrofluoric acid, may be used as an adjuvant in antibiotic therapy. Lithium fluoride is useful for the development of nanostructures and nanolayers.rticles. Determination of Water Content in Lithium fluoride Using Karl Fischer Titration. Adherent water in salts can be easily determined. It is best to choose a working medium which will prevent the salt from dissolving, e.g. a Methanol-Chloroform mixture with an excess of Chloroform.
Lithium is the lightest known metal and can be alloyed with aluminium, copper, manganese, and cadmium to make strong, lightweight metals for aircraft. Lithium hydroxide (LiOH) is used to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere of spacecraft. Lithium stearate (LiC 18 H 35 O 2) is used as a general purpose and high temperature lubricant. Lithium carbonate (Li 2 CO 3) is used as a drug to treat manic depression disorder.
