Strontium oxide or strontia, SrO, is formed when strontium reacts with oxygen. Burning strontium in air results in a mixture of strontium oxide and strontium nitride. It also forms from the decomposition of strontium carbonate SrCO 3. It is a strongly basic oxide.
Strontium peroxide is an inorganic compound with the formula Sr O 2 that exists in both anhydrous and octahydrate form, both of which are white solids. The anhydrous form adopts a structure similar to that of calcium carbide. [4] [5]
Strontium oxide – SrO; Tellurium dioxide – TeO 2; Uranium(IV) oxide – UO 2 (only simple oxides, oxyhalides, and related compounds, not hydroxides, carbonates, acids, or other compounds listed elsewhere)
Besides the simple oxide SrO, the peroxide SrO 2 can be made by direct oxidation of strontium metal under a high pressure of oxygen, and there is some evidence for a yellow superoxide Sr(O 2) 2. [13] Strontium hydroxide, Sr(OH) 2, is a strong base, though it is not as strong as the hydroxides of barium or the alkali metals. [14]

Because Sr(OH) 2 is slightly soluble in cold water, its preparation can be easily carried out by the addition of a strong base such as NaOH or KOH, drop by drop to a solution of any soluble strontium salt, most commonly Sr(NO 3) 2 (strontium nitrate).
Strontium oxalate is a compound with the chemical formula SrC 2 O 4.Strontium oxalate can exist either in a hydrated form (SrC 2 O 4 ·nH 2 O) or as the acidic salt of strontium oxalate (SrC 2 O 4 ·mH 2 C 2 O 4 ·nH 2 O). [2]
Strontium sulfide is the inorganic compound with the formula Sr S. It is a white solid. The compound is an intermediate in the conversion of strontium sulfate, the main strontium ore called celestite (or, more correctly, celestine), to other more useful compounds. [2] [3] [4]
