Neptunium(IV) nitrate is an inorganic compound, a salt of neptunium and nitric acid with the chemical formula Np(NO3)4.[1][2][3] The compound forms gray crystals, dissolves in water, and forms crystal hydrates.[4][5]
Synthesis
[edit]Addition of dilute nitric acid to freshly prepared neptunium(IV) hydroxide:[6][7]
- Np(OH)4 + 4 HNO3 → Np(NO3)4 + 4 H2O
Physical properties
[edit]Neptunium(IV) nitrate forms gray hygroscopic crystals.
It is soluble in water.
It forms a crystal hydrate of the composition Np(NO3)4•2H2O.
