| Lithium reacted with hydrogen. The reaction product was dissolved in water, while a gas was formed that reacted with bromine, and the resulting solution, when heated, reacted with chlorine to form a mixture of two salts. Write the equations for the described reactions.
2Li + H2 → 2LiH
LiH + H2O → LiOH + H2↑
H2 + Br2 → 2HBr
6LiOH + 3Cl2 → 5LiCl + LiClO3 + 3H2O
