Re: alkyllithium + CO2

All metals dissolve in gas.  I don't know if this
analogical or homological..   Zr reacts with
electrolyte and hydronium ion to form hydrogen.

Pellet sized zirconium is used for something of
which I am not aware of.

Three mile island evolved 2 gallons of Xenon.

Maybe there is some phatasmagorical
 green chemistry fallout of some gallon measure.
