Chemical compound
Rubidium perchlorate , RbClO4 , is the perchlorate of rubidium . It is an oxidizing agent , as are all perchlorates .
Preparation and properties
Rubidium perchlorate can be obtained through the careful heating of a rubidium chlorate solution, leading to a disproportionation reaction with the release of oxygen gas:[ 3]
2 RbClO3 → RbClO4 + RbCl + O2
When heated, it decomposes into the chloride and oxygen:[ 4]
RbClO4 → RbCl + 2 O2
It has two polymorphs . Below 279 °C, it crystallizes in orthorhombic crystal system with lattice constants a = 0.927 nm, b = 0.581 nm, c = 0.753 nm. Over 279 °C, it has a cubic structure with lattice constant a = 0.770 nm.[ 1]
