Rubidium hyperoxide is a chemical compound between rubidium and oxygen from the group of oxides , more precisely the hyperoxides .
Extraction and presentation
Rubidium hyperoxide is formed when rubidium is burned in excess of oxygen.
properties
Rubidium hyperoxide is an orange solid and, like potassium and cesium hyperoxide, crystallizes in the calcium carbide structure. When heated in a hydrogen atmosphere, rubidium hydroxide , water and oxygen are formed; hydrogen peroxide is formed as an intermediate product .
The standard enthalpy of formation of rubidium hyperoxide is ΔH f 0 = −288 kJ / mol.
