Praseodymium pentaphosphide is a binary inorganic compound of praseodymium metal and phosphorus with the chemical formula PrP5.
Praseodymium pentaphosphide can be prepared by heating stoichiometric amounts of praseodymium and phosphorus at 700 °C:
Praseodymium pentaphosphide crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system, space group P21/m, cell parameters a = 0.4938 nm, b = 0.9595 nm, c = 0.5482 nm, β = 103.64°, Z = 2, with the same structure as neodymium pentaphosphide (NdP5). [1] [2]
The compound is formed by a peritectic reaction at a temperature of 697 °C. [3]
Praseodymium is a chemical element; it has symbol Pr and the atomic number 59. It is the third member of the lanthanide series and is considered one of the rare-earth metals. It is a soft, silvery, malleable and ductile metal, valued for its magnetic, electrical, chemical, and optical properties. It is too reactive to be found in native form, and pure praseodymium metal slowly develops a green oxide coating when exposed to air.
Lutetium tantalate is a chemical compound of lutetium, tantalum and oxygen with the formula LuTaO4. With a density of 9.81 g/cm3, this salt is the densest known white stable material. (Although thorium dioxide ThO2 is also white and has a higher density of 10 g/cm3, it is radioactively unstable; while not radioactive enough to make it unstable as a material, even its low rate of decay is still too much for certain uses such as phosphors for detecting ionising radiation.) The white color and high density of LuTaO4 make it ideal for phosphor applications, though the high cost of lutetium is a hindrance.
Praseodymium(III) bromide is a crystalline compound of one praseodymium atom and three bromine atoms.
Praseodymium(III) fluoride is an inorganic compound with the formula PrF3, being the most stable fluoride of praseodymium.
Praseodymium(III) nitride is a binary inorganic compound of praseodymium and nitrogen. Its chemical formula is PrN. The compound forms black crystals, and reacts with water.
Praseodymium(IV) fluoride (also praseodymium tetrafluoride) is a binary inorganic compound, a highly oxidised metal salt of praseodymium and fluoride with the chemical formula PrF4.
Praseodymium monophosphide is an inorganic compound of praseodymium and phosphorus with the chemical formula PrP. The compound forms crystals.
Samarium(III) phosphide is an inorganic compound of samarium and phosphorus with the chemical formula SmP.
Lanthanum phosphide is an inorganic compound of lanthanum and phosphorus with the chemical formula LaP.
Praseodymium compounds are compounds formed by the lanthanide metal praseodymium (Pr). In these compounds, praseodymium generally exhibits the +3 oxidation state, such as PrCl3, Pr(NO3)3 and Pr(CH3COO)3. However, compounds with praseodymium in the +2 and +4 oxidation states, and unlike other lanthanides, the +5 oxidation state, are also known.
Neodymium tantalate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula NdTaO4. It is prepared by reacting neodymium oxide and tantalum pentoxide at 1200 °C. It reacts with a mixture of tantalum pentoxide and chlorine gas at high temperature to obtain Nd2Ta2O7Cl2. It is ammonolyzed at high temperature to obtain oxynitrides of Nd-Ta.
Praseodymium(III) iodide is an inorganic salt, consisting of the rare-earth metal praseodymium and iodine, with the chemical formula PrI3. It forms green crystals. It is soluble in water.
Praseodymium diiodide is a chemical compound with the empirical formula of PrI2, consisting of praseodymium and iodine. It is an electride, with the ionic formula of Pr3+(I−)2e−, and therefore not a true praseodymium(II) compound.
Praseodymium bismuthide is a binary inorganic compound of praseodymium and bismuth with the chemical formula of PrBi. It forms crystals.
Praseodymium antimonide is a binary inorganic compound of praseodymium and antimony with the formula PrSb.
Praseodymium arsenide is a binary inorganic compound of praseodymium and arsenic with the formula PrAs.
Praseodymium(III) phosphate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula PrPO4.
Praseodymium monoselenide is a compound with the chemical formula PrSe. It forms crystals.
Praseodymium(III) molybdate is a salt of praseodymium and molybdic acid with the chemical formula Pr2(MoO4)3. It forms crystals that are insoluble in water.
Samarium pentaphosphide is a binary inorganic compound of samarium metal and phosphorus with the chemical formula SmP5.
