Einsteinium (III) oxide is a chemical compound of the elements einsteinium and oxygen with the empirical formula Es 2 O 3 .

presentation

Einsteinium (III) oxide is obtained by calcining the corresponding nitrate in submicrogram quantities.

properties

Einsteinium (III) oxide is a colorless solid. Three modifications are known. The lattice parameter of the body-centered cubic crystal is 1076.6 ± 0.6  pm . On the basis of this, the ionic radius of Es 3+ was calculated to be 92.8 pm. A monoclinic and a hexagonal lanthanum (III) oxide structure are also known.

safety instructions

Classifications according to the CLP regulation are not available because they only include chemical hazard and play a completely subordinate role compared to the hazards based on radioactivity . The latter also only applies if the amount of substance involved is relevant.
