Answer
When $LiBr$ solid is placed in water, partially negative oxygen atoms (from the water molecules) attract positive $Li^+$ ions. At the same type, the partially positive hydrogen atoms attract negative $Br^-$ ions. This process takes the ions from the solid to the solution.
After that, these ions undergo hydration as water molecules surround $Li^+$ and $Br^-$, keeping them in solution.
