The statistical theory of phase transformations in the course of chemical reactions on hydrogen absorption–desorption in the lithium nitride with the formation of lithium amide and hydride has been developed. The calculation of free energies of all constituent phases of chemical reactions has been performed on the basis of molecular-kinetic notions, their dependences on temperature, pressure, hydrogen concentration and energetic parameters have been ascertained. The hydrogen solubility in phases has been estimated, it has been ascertained the possibility of manifestation of peculiarities of its temperature dependence. The constitution diagram for the system being investigated has been constructed. The actual conditions of manifestation of hysteresis effect has been justified. The calculation results have been compared with experimental literature data for the examined system.
