Hey /sci i disassembled a Lithium battery. what now?
>>8875091
Lick it.
>>8875091
figure a cheap and effective way of increasing it's energy storage capacity.
if you can figure this out, you'll be set for life. rechargeable battery technology hasn't improved in 30 years.
>>8875091
Consume the contents
>>8875091
Drop it in the bathtub to absorb it's power
>>88875091
Shove it up your ass for science i guess.
>>8875091
stab it
/b Wtf you doing here?
Tert-butyl it and put in super soaker flushed with argon

And what will happen? :D

If you got the Lithium metal:
1) Burn a [small] piece. Do it outside and in a totally non-flammable place because you won't be able to simply put it out.
2Li + ½O2 -> Li2O
2) Throw a [small] piece into water, obtaining hydrogen and lithium hydroxide. Fire/explosion cautions apply.
Li + H2O -> LiOH + ½H2
3) Throw the residues from burning (lithium oxide) into water for more lithium hydroxide.
4) Treat the aqueous hydroxide with enough acid (like vinegar) and crystallize a lithium salt.
5) Use any lithium compound to dye flames red.

There's still a lot of improvement for li-ion
The next step is solid electrolytes for metal-air batteries

Don't understand anything going on in this thread. Stupid question: is it possible to self teach yourself chemistry?
