Erbium(III) selenate is an inorganic compound, with the chemical formula Er2(SeO4)3. It exists as an anhydrate or an octahydrate.

Preparation and properties

[edit]

Monoclinic erbium(III) selenate octahydrate can be crystallized from the solution when dissolving erbium oxide in selenic acid:[1]

Er2O3 + 3 H2SeO4 + 5 H2O → Er2(SeO4)3·8H2O

Erbium(III) selenate octahydrate is first dehydrated by heating to obtain the anhydrous form, and then heated continuously to obtain erbium selenite and finally erbium(III) oxide.[1][2]

It can crystallize with M2SeO4 in aqueous solution to form double salts, such as K3Er(SeO4)3·nH2O[3] and NH4Er(SeO4)2·3H2O,[4] etc.
