Description
Lithium carbonate is a high-purity alkali metal carbonate supplied in the ROTI®METIC 99,999 % (5N) grade for advanced laboratory and materials applications. Identified by CAS number 554-13-2 and empirical formula Li₂CO₃, it has a molar mass of 73,89 g/mol and a density of 2,11 g/cm³. The compound is widely used in inorganic synthesis, battery-materials research, glass and ceramic studies, and as a lithium source in analytical or process development work where ultra-low impurity levels matter. This provides a practical quantity for method setup, small-batch reactions, and reference preparations. Available from manufacturer Carl ROTH within the ROTI®METIC portfolio and registered under EG nr. 209-062-5, the product supports professional scientific workflows that require consistent Li₂CO₃ feedstock. Lithium carbonate remains a core reagent whenever controlled lithium carbonate purity is needed in research or specialty chemical formulations.

Questions about Lithium carbonate, ROTI®METIC 99,999 % (5N), 10 g, plastic
What is this article?
Lithium carbonate, ROTI®METIC 99,999 % (5N), 10 g, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Inorganic salts, inside Inorganic chemicals, in Lab chemicals.
An inorganic salt is an ionic solid, a chloride, a sulfate, a nitrate, a phosphate. The degree of hydration changes the mass that contains one mole of the ion. Analytical grade limits the foreign ions. A hydrate and the anhydrous salt are not interchangeable by weight.
An inorganic chemical is a salt, an acid or base in solid form, a metal, an oxide, or an element. The waters of hydration are part of the formula: a hydrate and an anhydrous salt are different masses for the same ion. Trace metals matter when the salt will be used in analysis. Nanomaterials add particle size to the specification. Look the substance up on PubChem. Hazard classes are on ECHA, under the CLP Regulation and REACH. Transport of the dangerous ones is explained by the UNECE.
