在这里挖下去，你就会发现卤水——充满盐分的水——富含最轻金属锂的沉积物。

Dig down and you find brine - water saturated with salt - rich in deposits of lithium, the lightest metal.

储量可以持续数百年，因此即使在所有的汽车都成为混合动力或电动的这种不可能发生的情况下，也有足够的锂来满足我们的需求。

The reserves could last for centuries, so there will be enough lithium to fill up our tanks even in the improbable case of all cars becoming hybrid or electric.

但是仍没有轻易做到一次充电能为一辆小型电动车通过一段合理的道路提供电力的锂电池。

But there is still no lithium battery light enough to power a small electric car over a reasonable distance on a single charge.

The electronic configuration, all it is is the shorthand notation for that one electron approximation for the Schrodinger equation for lithium.

电子构型就是，对于锂的薛定谔方程,的单电子近似的,简化形式。

I can then subsequently lose an electron from the lithium ion. Lithium ion loses an electron to become lithium 2plus.

然后我能在锂离子中，失去一个电子,锂离子失去一个电子,变为二价锂离子。

if we're actually thinking about electron configuration and we look at lithium, sodium and potassium, these all have one valence electron.

让我们来想一想,锂，钠，钾的电子排布，它们都只有一个价电子。
