| Physical and Chemical Properties | Europium trichloride, chemical formula EuCl3. Molecular weight 258.32. Yellow needle-like crystals. The specific gravity was 4.89. Melting point 850 °c. Soluble in water and ethanol. Europium chloride crystals are prepared by the interaction of europium oxide and hydrochloric acid, and then heated to 180~200 ° C. In a hydrogen chloride atmosphere. If the anhydrous europium chloride is heated to 400-450 °c in a stream of hydrogen, a colorless amorphous europium dichloride is formed. |
| Safety Description | 24/25 - Avoid contact with skin and eyes. |
