Sr3(PO3)2, also known as Strontium Phosphite, is a chemical compound formed from 3 atoms of Strontium (Sr) and 2 molecules of Phosphite (PO3)2-. The English name of this compound is also Strontium Phosphite.
The molar mass of Sr3(PO3)2 is calculated by the total number of Strontium atoms multiplied by the molar mass of Strontium plus the number of Phosphite atoms multiplied by the molar mass of Phosphite. Strontium has a molar mass of 87.62 g/mol, and Phosphite has a molar mass of 80 g/mol. Therefore, the molar mass of Sr3(PO3)2 is 262.86 g/mol.
Sr3(PO3)2 has a molecular structure comprising of 3 Strontium ions and 2 Phosphite ions combined. Under standard conditions, it usually appears as a white, odorless powder with a neutral pH.
Sr3(PO3)2 can participate in various chemical reactions, such as reactions with metals, acids, non-metals, and salts. However, the specifics for each reaction case will depend on the particular reaction conditions and other chemicals used in the reaction process.
Sr3(PO3)2 can be synthesized in the laboratory or on an industrial scale through the reaction between Strontium and Phosphorous acid.
