| Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [Uses]
Rh2O3 is used to make rhodium metal and its various salts. Also, the oxide is a catalyst for hydrogenation.
| [Preparation]
Rhodium sesquioxide is obtained by heating rhodium metal to red heat in air.
4Rh + 3O2 → 2Rh2O3
Alternatively, Rh2O3 may be prepared by igniting rhodium nitrate, Rh(NO3)3.
Treating the sesquioxide with alkali first forms a yellow precipitate of pentahydrate, Rh2O3•5H2O, soluble in acid and excess alkali. In excess alkali a black precipitate of trihydrate, Rh2O3•3H2O is obtained. The trihydrate is insoluble in acids.

| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
Rhodium oxide is YELLOW POWDER
| [Physical properties]
Gray crystalline solid or amorphous powder; corundum-type structure; density 8.20 g/cm3; decomposes at about 1,100 to 1,150°C; insoluble in water, acids, or aqua regia.
The pentahydrate Rh2O3?5H2O is a yellow precipitate; soluble in acids; partially dissolves in hot water; ignites to form anhydrous oxide.
The trihydrate Rh2O3?3H2O is a black precipitate; insoluble in acids. | [Production Methods]
Rhodium(III) oxide, Rh2O3, can be prepared by heating the finely divided metal or its nitrate in air or O2. The rhodium(IV) oxide is also known. Rhodium trihydroxide may be precipitated as a yellow compound by adding the stoichiometric amount of KOH to a solution of RhCl3. The hydroxide is soluble in acids and excess base. When the freshly precipitated Rh(OH)3 is dissolved in HCl at a controlled pH, a yellow solution is first obtained in which the aquochloro complex of Rh behaves as a cation. | [Flammability and Explosibility]
