properties

Gallium (III) bromide is a white, odorless, very hygroscopic solid that smokes heavily in moist air. It is only soluble in water with hydrolysis. In solid form, the compound is in the form of a dimer with edge-sharing GaBr 4 - tetrahedra before ( monoclinic crystal structure, space group P 2 1 / c . (Space group No. 14) , a = 8.874 Å , b = 5.637 Å, c = 11.006 Å, β = 107.81 °). Gallium (III) bromide forms complexes of the type GaBr 3 · D and rarely GaBr 3 · 2D with donors .
