Making Lithium Hydroxide (precursor to lithium drugs and CO2 absorber) (2016x10)

Air date: Jan 29, 2016

In this video, we will be making lithium hydroxide by reacting lithium metal with water! I plan to use the lithium hydroxide to make some lithium based drugs (used to treat bipolar disorder) and to make lithium peroxide (reacts with CO2 and produces O2) I plan to do an Q and A video, so if you have any questions you'd like me to address in the video, leave them in the comments.
