CaBaO3
CaBaO3, also known as calcium barium oxide, is a compound composed of calcium, barium, and oxygen. It is a white crystalline solid that is insoluble in water. The compound is typically prepared by the reaction of calcium oxide (CaO) and barium oxide (BaO) in a 1:1 molar ratio. CaBaO3 is used in various applications, including as a catalyst in chemical reactions and as a component in certain ceramics and glass formulations. Its structure is characterized by a complex arrangement of calcium and barium ions surrounded by oxygen ions. The compound has a high melting point and is stable under normal conditions. CaBaO3 is also known for its luminescent properties, which make it useful in certain optical applications. However, it is important to handle CaBaO3 with care due to its potential to react with water, releasing heat and forming calcium hydroxide and barium hydroxide.
