Description
Radium nitrate had the molecular formula of
Ra(NO3)2 and the molecular weight of 350.0343 g/mol.
It can be prepared by a number of methods. The reaction
between nitric acid and radium metal is one way and
reaction with Ra RaO or RaCO3 is another. Radium
hydroxide and ammonium nitrate also form the product
but ammonia is released as a by-product:
2HNO3 + Ra ? Ra(NO3)2 +H2
2HNO3 + RaO ? Ra(NO3)2 +H2O
Ra(OH)2 + 2NH4NO3 ? Ra(NO3)2 + 2NH3 + 2H2O
Radium nitrate can also be prepared by the reaction
of radium carbonate with nitric acid. The product is
soluble but can be isolated by evaporation of the solution
at low temperature.
