Ytterbium(III) nitrate is an inorganic compound, a salt of ytterbium and nitric acid with the chemical formula Yb(NO3)3.[2] The compound forms colorless crystals, dissolves in water, and also forms crystalline hydrates.[3][4]
Synthesis[edit]
Reaction of ytterbium and nitric oxide in ethyl acetate:
Reaction of ytterbium hydroxide and nitric acid:
Physical properties[edit]
Ytterbium(III) nitrate forms colorless hygroscopic crystals.
Forms crystalline hydrates of the composition , where n = 4, 5, 6.[5]
Chemical properties[edit]
The hydrated ytterbium nitrate thermally decomposes to form YbONO3 and decomposes to ytterbium oxide upon further heating.
Application[edit]
Ytterbium(III) nitrate hydrate is used for nanoscale coatings of carbon composites.[6]
Also used to obtain metallic ytterbium and as a chemical reagent.
Used as a component for the production of ceramics and glass.
