though LiNo3 is a group I nitrate it behaves as if it were a group II nitrate. therefore it decomposes in to Li2O and NO2 not to LiNO2 and O2 as indicated in this page, upon heating. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pushpaka (talk • contribs) at 06:08, 27 April 2006.

[edit] Solubility

I'm pretty sure a lot more than 9g/100ml will dissolve. That number is not consistent with it being deliquescent, which it most certainly is. Evand 06:20, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Ah, here we go. The JT Baker MSDS lists solubility as 50g/100ml: [1] -- a much more reasonable number. I'm changing accordinly. Evand 06:23, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
