ANSWER
EXPLANATION
Lithium chloride is produced as a result of direct combination of lithium and chlorine
[tex]\text{ Li + Cl }\rightarrow\text{ LiCl}[/tex][tex]\text{ Li}^+\text{ }+\text{ Cl}^-\text{ }\rightarrow\text{ LiCl}[/tex]In the above reaction, lithium is a metal while chlorine is a non metal.
Recall, that most element participate in a chemical reaction so as to complete its octet structure.
Hence, LiCl is lithium chloride
