Which metal is obtained as by-products during metallurgy of Lithium ?

• A. Rubidium
• B. Caesium
• C. Both Rubidium and Caesium
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B Caesium

Lithium chloride (LiCl) is used as electrolyte in batteries or further processed to produce lithium metal for lead and magnesium alloys, lithium hydride (LiH) for high-purity silane, and lithium nitride $\left(L{i}_{3}N\right)$ used as catalyst. And the byproducts are Caesium .

Hence , option B is correct .
