General Description

Trihydrideplutonium(III) is a compound composed of plutonium in its +3 oxidation state bonded to three hydrogen atoms. Trihydrideplutonium(III) is highly reactive and unstable, as plutonium is a radioactive element with a tendency to undergo radioactive decay. Trihydrideplutonium(III) is primarily used in research settings for studies on the properties and behavior of plutonium compounds. Due to its radioactivity and potential health hazards, careful handling and storage precautions must be taken when working with this compound. Additionally, its instability makes it a challenging compound to work with, requiring specialized equipment and procedures to ensure safety.
