- Hydrochloric Acid + Lithium Carbonate → Lithium Chloride + Carbon Dioxide + Water
- 2HCl + Li2CO3 → 2LiCl + CO2 + H2O
- Sulphuric Acid + Lithium Carbonate → Lithium Sulphate + Carbon Dioxide + Water
- H2SO4 + Li2CO3 → Li2SO4 + CO2 + H2O
- Nitric Acid + Lithium Carbonate → Lithium Nitrate + Carbon Dioxide + Water
- 2HNO3 + Li2CO3 → 2LiNO3 + CO2 + H2O
