The structure of metatellurate and orthotellurate In chemistry, tellurate is a compound containing an oxyanion of tellurium where tellurium has an oxidation number of +6. In the naming of inorganic compounds it is a suffix that indicates a polyatomic anion with a central tellurium atom.
The telluride ion is the anion Te 2− and its derivatives. It is analogous to the other chalcogenide anions, the lighter O 2−, S 2−, and Se 2−, and the heavier Po 2−. [1]In principle, Te 2− is formed by the two-e − reduction of tellurium.
Hydrogen telluride is the inorganic compound with the formula H 2 Te.A hydrogen chalcogenide and the simplest hydride of tellurium, it is a colorless gas.Although unstable in ambient air, the gas can exist long enough to be readily detected by the odour of rotting garlic at extremely low concentrations; or by the revolting odour of rotting leeks at somewhat higher concentrations.
When a salt of a metal ion, with the generic formula MX n, is dissolved in water, it will dissociate into a cation and anions. [citation needed]+ + (aq) signifies that the ion is aquated, with cations having a chemical formula [M(H 2 O) p] q+ and anions whose state of aquation is generally unknown.
A tellurite tellurate is a chemical compound or salt that contains tellurite and tellurate anions [TeO 3] 2-[TeO 4] 2-. These are mixed anion compounds , meaning the compounds are cations that contain one or more anions.
Tellurite is a oxyanion of tellurium with the formula TeO 2− 3. It is the ion of tellurous acid, and is chemically related to tellurium dioxide (TeO 2), whose mineral appearance also bears the name tellurite. Tellurites are typically colorless or white salts, which in some ways are comparable to sulfite. [3]
A chemical element, often simply called an element, is a type of atom which has a specific number of protons in its atomic nucleus (i.e., a specific atomic number, or Z). [ 1 ] The definitive visualisation of all 118 elements is the periodic table of the elements , whose history along the principles of the periodic law was one of the founding ...
Aluminium reacts with most nonmetals upon heating, forming compounds such as aluminium nitride (AlN), aluminium sulfide (Al 2 S 3), and the aluminium halides (AlX 3).It also forms a wide range of intermetallic compounds involving metals from every group on the periodic table.
