The most common is its octahydrate. The colorless salt is hexagonal crystal, which is dehydrated at 500 ℃, and forms basic salt at 700 ℃. It can form various double sulfate salts with alkali metal sulfate.Formation of La (HSO) in sulfuric acidfour)3,stayhydrogen sulfideGenerated when heating under airflowsulfide。[2]
Nine hydrate Latwo(SOfour)three·9HtwoO=728.14 colorless hexagonal crystal.The relative density is 2.82. When heated to 400 ℃, one molecule of crystal water is lost, and it turns into anhydrous salt at 500 ℃.
