LiOH Solution

[Dinah Thiers Farrington]

Dear Readers,

     I am trying to make a solution of LiOH in water.  Getting this
material into solution is a real problem for me.  I am just making a 1 M
solution, which is well within the published solubility limit but some
of the solid just won't go into solution (despite stirring over 6
hours). as anyone ever encountered this problem with Li solutions? Any
advice or answers would be appreciated!
                                    Thank you,
                                    Dinah Farrington
