Cerium(III) nitrate crystal with Miller index notation. Anhydrous cerous nitrate, also called cerium(III) nitrate, is the anhydrous salt with the formula Ce(NO 3) 3.(CAS number 10108-73-3). Cerium nitrate hexahydrate, with the formula Ce(NO 3) 3.6H 2 O (CAS number 10294-41-4) is the most
Aluminium nitrate is a white, water-soluble salt of aluminium and nitric acid, most commonly existing as the crystalline hydrate, aluminium nitrate nonahydrate, Al(NO 3) 3 ·9H 2 O. Preparation [ edit ]
The anhydrous nickel nitrate is typically not prepared by heating the hydrates. Rather it is generated by the reaction of hydrates with dinitrogen pentoxide or of nickel carbonyl with dinitrogen tetroxide: [3] Ni(CO) 4 + 2 N 2 O 4 → Ni(NO 3) 2 + 2 NO + 4 CO. The hydrated nitrate is often used as a precursor to supported nickel catalysts. [3]
Tetranitratoaluminate salts are not completely stable and can decompose to the nitrates and aluminium oxynitrates. [3] When nitronium tetranitratoaluminate is sublimed it can form anhydrous aluminium nitrate. [2] Nitronium tetranitratoaluminate dissolved in a nitric acid and dinitrogen pentoxide mixture yields the hexanitratoaluminate complex.
Copper(II) nitrate describes any member of the family of inorganic compounds with the formula Cu(NO 3) 2 (H 2 O) x. The hydrates are hygroscopic blue solids. Anhydrous copper nitrate forms blue-green crystals and sublimes in a vacuum at 150-200 °C. [5] [6] Common hydrates are the hemipentahydrate and trihydrate.
Thorium(IV) nitrate is a chemical compound, a salt of thorium and nitric acid with the formula Th(NO 3) 4. A white solid in its anhydrous form, it can form tetra- and penta hydrates . As a salt of thorium it is weakly radioactive .
Zinc nitrate is an inorganic chemical compound with the formula Zn(NO 3) 2. This colorless, crystalline salt is highly deliquescent . It is typically encountered as a hexahydrate Zn(NO 3 ) 2 ·6H 2 O .
Both compounds may be easily prepared by decomposing a dry metal nitrate. Both react with water to form nitric acid. Dinitrogen tetroxide is very useful for the preparation of anhydrous metal nitrates and nitrato complexes, and it became the storable oxidiser of choice for many rockets in both the United States and USSR by the late
