Strontium hydroxide, Sr(OH)2, is a caustic composed of one and two ions. It is synthesized by combining a strontium with a . Sr(OH)2 exists in , , or octahydrate form.
Appearance: opaque crystal, soluble in acid and NH4cl solution, slightly soluble in cold water,
Preparation:Because Sr(OH)2 is very slightly soluble in water, its preparation can be easily carried out by the addition of a strong base such as or , drop by drop to a solution of any strontium salt, most commonly Sr(NO3)2 (). The Sr(OH)2 will precipitate out as a fine white powder. From here, the solution is filtered, and the Sr(OH)2 is washed with cold water and dried.
Applications:Strontium hydroxide is used chiefly in the refining of beet sugar and as a stabilizer in plastic. It may be used as a source of strontium ions when the from is undesirable. Strontium hydroxide absorbs from the air to form .
