Neptunium silicide is a binary inorganic compound of neptunium and silicon with the chemical formula NpSi
2.[1] The compound forms crystals and does not dissolve in water.[2]
Synthesis
Heating neptunium trifluoride with powdered silicon in vacuum[3]:
Physical properties
Neptunium silicide forms crystals[4] of tetragonal crystal system, space group I41/amd, cell parameters: a = 0.396 nm, c = 1.367 nm, Z = 4.[5]
Neptunium disilicide does not dissolve in water.
Chemical properties
Neptunium disilicide reacts with HCl[3]:
