Lithium Bromide has been characterized as the chemical compound of lithium and bromide. Due to its extreme hygroscopic nature it has been highly useful as the desiccant in some air conditioning systems. Due to the treatment of lithium carbonate with hydrobromic acid, lithium bromide can be obtained. The salt gives rise to various crystalline hydrates.
