What is Ga2N5? Important knowledge about Ga2N5.

1. Definition of Ga₂N₅

Ga₂N₅ is known as Gallium nitride. Ga₂N₅ consists of two gallium (Ga) atoms and five nitrogen (N) atoms. The atomic mass for gallium is 69.723 amu and nitrogen is 14.007 amu, so the total atomic mass of Ga₂N₅ is 69.723 2 + 14.007 5 = 188.47 amu. Ga₂N₅ has a prismatic molecular structure.

2. Properties: Ga₂N₅

• Physical properties of Ga₂N₅: Ga₂N₅ usually appears as a colorless solid. It doesn’t have any particular smell and is insoluble in water. Ga₂N₅ is hard, a semiconductor, has good thermal conductivity and is highly durable at high temperatures.
• Chemical properties of Ga₂N₅: Gallium nitride is not affected by air, water, and most other chemical benefits. It can react with strong acids to dissolve.

3. Common chemical equations for Ga₂N₅

Gallium nitride does not easily react chemically, so it is not frequently used in ordinary chemical reactions.

4. Preparation of Ga₂N₅

• Laboratory synthesis of Ga₂N₅: Ga₂N₅ is usually not synthesized in the lab due to the difficulty and danger of the process.
• Industrial synthesis of Ga₂N₅: Ga₂N₅ is usually produced industrially by the reaction between gallium and nitrogen at high temperature.
