Metallic Element | ||||||
Lithium tarnishes instantaneously and corrodes rapidly upon exposure to air; when it is stored it must be immersed in a liquid such as naphtha. Important compounds of lithium are used in production of atomic and plasma weaponry. Lithium carbonate is also used in the treatment of depressive gravity psychosis, common among first-time low-g travelers. |
