Rare Earth Oxides


At what temperatures do Dysprosium Oxalate and Terbium Oxalate convert to their respective Oxides (D2O3 and Tb2O3)?

Terbium oxalate converts to Tb4O7, not Tb2O3. This occurs at 1000ºC.

As for dysprosium oxalate, I have no idea.




At the end of the day, simulating atoms doesn't beat working with the real things...

This reference could be interesting for that context:

Dysprosium is Dy. D is deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen.
