Few compounds of californium have been made and studied. [1] The only californium ion that is stable in aqueous solutions is the californium(III) cation. [2] The other two oxidation states are IV (strong oxidizing agents) and II (strong reducing agents). [3]
Californium is a silvery-white actinide metal [12] with a melting point of 900 ± 30 °C (1,650 ± 50 °F) and an estimated boiling point of 1,743 K (1,470 °C; 2,680 °F). [13] The pure metal is malleable and is easily cut with a knife. Californium metal starts to vaporize above 300 °C (570 °F) when exposed to a vacuum. [14]

A dication is any cation, of general formula X 2+, formed by the removal of two electrons from a neutral species. Diatomic dications corresponding to stable neutral species (e.g. H 2+ 2 formed by removal of two electrons from H 2) often decay quickly into two singly charged particles (H +), due to the loss of electrons in bonding molecular ...
Californium(III) oxide forms a yellow-green solid with a melting point of 1750 °C and exists in three modifications. [2] The body-centered cubic modification forms a crystal lattice with a = 1083.9 ± 0.4 pm. The transition temperature between body-centered cubic and monoclinic structures is about 1400 °C. [3] [4] It is insoluble in water. [5]
Californium (98 Cf) is an artificial element, and thus a standard atomic weight cannot be given. Like all artificial elements, it has no stable isotopes. The first isotope to be synthesized was 245 Cf in 1950. There are 20 known radioisotopes ranging from 237 Cf to 256 Cf and one nuclear isomer, 249m Cf.
Californium oxychloride (Cf OCl) is a radioactive salt first discovered in measurable quantities in 1960. It is composed of a single californium cation and oxychloride consisting of one chloride and one oxide anion.
