More Chemistry
Lithium-13 is a radioisotope of the chemical element Lithium, which, in addition to the element-specific 3 protons, has 10 neutrons in the atomic nucleus, resulting in the mass number 13. The very short-lived, unstable and therefore radioactive nuclide, which can only be produced artificially, has no practical significance; The study of 13Li serves exclusively academic purposes. The ground state of the very neutron-rich, unbound nuclide was first described in the literature in 2013.
