Ytterbium(III) hydroxide is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Yb(OH)3.
Chemical properties
Ytterbium(III) hydroxide dissolves in acid to form a ytterbium salt:
- Yb(OH)3 + 3 H+ → Yb+3 + 3 H2O
Ytterbium(III) hydroxide is decomposed by heat, first forming YbO(OH), and continuing to heat to obtain Yb2O3.[1] It reacts with aluminum hydroxide oxide (AlOOH) at 1400 °C to obtain Yb3Al5O12.[2]
