- Source: Californium tetrafluoride
Californium tetrafluoride is a binary inorganic compound of californium and fluorine with the formula CfF4.
Synthesis
Californium tetrafluoride can be prepared from Cf2O3 and F2 at 400 °C.
2Cf2O3 + 8F2 → 4CfF4 + 3O2
Also californium tetrafluoride is produced by β-decay of BkF4.
Physical properties
Californium tetrafluoride is a light green solid. It possesses a monoclinic UF4 structure.
Chemical properties
CfF4 decomposes to californium trifluoride when heated:
2CfF4 → 2CfF3 + 2F
