What does praseodymium react with?
Praseodymium makes a new substance with 12 other elements and chemicals in our lab:
- Praseodymium + HydrogenPraseodymium hydride Pr + H₂ → PrH₂ · When heated · Try it
- Praseodymium + NitrogenPraseodymium nitride 2Pr + N₂ → 2PrN · Only when heated very strongly · Try it
- Praseodymium + OxygenPraseodymium(III,IV) oxide 12Pr + 11O₂ → 2Pr₆O₁₁ · When heated · Try it
- Praseodymium + FluorinePraseodymium fluoride 2Pr + 3F₂ → 2PrF₃ · At room temperature · Try it
- Praseodymium + SulfurPraseodymium sulfide 2Pr + 3S → Pr₂S₃ · When heated · Try it
- Praseodymium + ChlorinePraseodymium chloride 2Pr + 3Cl₂ → 2PrCl₃ · When heated · Try it
- Praseodymium + SeleniumPraseodymium selenide 2Pr + 3Se → Pr₂Se₃ · When heated · Try it
- Praseodymium + BrominePraseodymium bromide 2Pr + 3Br₂ → 2PrBr₃ · When heated · Try it
- Praseodymium + TelluriumPraseodymium telluride 2Pr + 3Te → Pr₂Te₃ · When heated · Try it
- Praseodymium + IodinePraseodymium iodide 2Pr + 3I₂ → 2PrI₃ · When heated · Try it
- Praseodymium + WaterPraseodymium hydroxide + hydrogen gas 2Pr + 6H₂O → 2Pr(OH)₃ + 3H₂ · At room temperature · Try it
- Praseodymium + Hydrochloric AcidPraseodymium chloride + hydrogen gas 2Pr + 6HCl → 2PrCl₃ + 3H₂ · At room temperature · Try it
It also blends into a mixture, like an alloy, with 73 other metals when melted together.
Nothing happens when it's simply mixed with 13 of the others. 21 pairings have never been tried, because not enough atoms have ever existed.
