Talk:Dilithium

1% in the vapor phase

The statement that 1%of Li in the vapor phase is Li₂ is meaningless without giving the pressure and temperature. If anyone has a reference with the details, it would be a great addition to the article. --Itub (talk) 08:16, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

dilithium in fiction

A lot could be made of a dilithium in fiction section. any objections? Brain Digitalis ^{(Talk) (Edits)} 15:50, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

I suggest simply a reference link to some Star Trek wiki or something rather than going crazy in this article. I don't have one in mind but would support your addition of a one-liner. I'd recommend adding a Reference section and specifying "(fiction)" rather than the type of Popular Culture section that makes some wikipedians rabid. I admit that I followed a link here because I was thinking Trek. :-) Tkech (talk) 11:10, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

We already have an article devoted to dilithium (Star Trek), plus a couple other fictional uses mentioned in [[dilithium (diambiguation). There is no need for an "in fiction" section here. A one-sentence mention could be tolerable, but still unnecessary given that the disambiguation page is already prominently linked from the top of the article. --Itub (talk) 12:44, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

/me pretends that was never there before (*cough*). Dunno how I overlooked it. >.< You are entirely correct and I withdraw my previous comment. Tkech (talk) 16:54, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

This is not true. We don't have an article called dilithium (Star Trek), it's only a redirect to List of fictional elements, materials, isotopes and atomic particles. As it would be a highly interesting section for geeks and nerds, I would encourage anyone willing to write something about dilithium in fiction to go ahead and do it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.49.243.177 (talk) 15:22, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

Dilithium in Star Trek is not the same material as the dilithium in this article.

Binding Energy= ... in Chembox?

211.30.193.151: |Binding Energy= is not a parameter (see Parameter list. What is the topic or intention? -DePiep (talk) 18:38, 12 June 2016 (UTC)

Li2 as ELECTROPHILE?

The first sentence of the article says that Li2 molecule is a strong electrophile. Are you sure about that??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.249.214.246 (talk) 16:17, 26 May 2022 (UTC)

I have found 59.6 kJ/mol for the lithium electron affinity. Since is more than half the dissociation energy, Li2 + 2e- -> 2Li- releases energy. 151.29.59.56 (talk) 13:36, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

comment

I suspect that the term symbol of state A should be (2 1sigma+g) and not (1 1sigma+g)

The 104 vibrational levels of state 5 seemed to me far too large. After reading ref. 3 I do not more believe this ... but I have not found 104 in it, at most 84 (it is possible, however, that my ^F does not search correctly). 151.29.59.56 (talk) 13:45, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

Dissociation energy in table

Why is it in units of inverse centimetres, and not in units of energy e.g. kJ/mol? Grassynoel (talk) 07:01, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
