Answer:
Two Lithium ions and one carbonate ion
Explanation:
Let us look at this equation;
Li2CO3(s) ------->2Li^(aq) + CO3^2-(aq)
We can see that each unit of Li2CO3 has two lithium ions and one carbonate ion.
Let us not forget that Li has a valency of 1 while carbonate ion has a valency of 2. Exchange of valencies gives the final formula of the compound.
