Praseodymium(III) hydroxide is an inorganic compound with a chemical formula Pr(OH)₃.

Production

The reaction between ammonia water and praseodymium(III) nitrate produces praseodymium(III) hydroxide:

Pr(NO₃)₃ + 3 NH₃·H₂O → Pr(OH)₃↓ + 3 NH₄NO₃

Chemical properties

Praseodymium(III) hydroxide can react with acid and produce praseodymium salts:

Pr(OH)₃ + 3 H → Pr + 3 H₂O, for example;

Pr(OH)₃ + 3CH₃COOH forms Pr(CH₃CO₂)₃ + 3H₂O;

Praseodymium(III) hydroxide + Acetic acid forms praseodymium(III) acetate and water.
