 Notes:
   a  These values were calculated by the compiler.

 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   A visual polythermal method was used. The temperatures were measured with a Nichrome-Constantan thermouple.

 Source and Purity of Materials:
   Analytical grade materials were recrystallized twice. The extrapolated fusion temperature of the lithium formate was 273 °C.

 Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: No information is given.
   Temperature: The compiler estimates the accuracy of the temperature measurement to be probably ± 0.2 K.
