As4Se9 is also known as Arsenic (IV) Selenide or Arsenic Selenide in English. As4Se9 is a type of non-metal compound, consisting of 4 atoms of Arsenic (As) and 9 atoms of Selenium (Se). This indicates that the structure of the As4Se9 molecule is quite complex. The molecular weight of As4Se9 is 988.36 g/mol. Moreover, due to its relatively complex molecular structure, As4Se9 does not form simple ions.
-
As4Se9 has many characteristic properties. Physical properties: As4Se9 is solid, black, odorless, insoluble in water, and its pH is not determinable. Chemical properties: As4Se9 is stable with normal temperature and pressure, does not react with air, water, is insoluble in acids and bases.
-
As4Se9 does not often participate in common chemical reactions, so there are not many examples of its reactions with metals, acids, non-metals, or salts.
-
In terms of As4Se9 synthesis, it is typically synthesized directly from the elements As and Se.
4.1 Laboratory synthesis: Arsenic and Selenium are heated in a glass tube, where both elements will react with each other to form As4Se9.
4.2 Industrial synthesis: In industry, As4Se9 is produced by burning Arsenic and Selenium in a furnace at high temperatures.
