gadolinium(iii) bromide hydrate

Description:
Gadolinium(III) bromide hydrate is an inorganic compound composed of gadolinium, a rare earth element, and bromine, with the formula typically represented as GdBr3·xH2O, where x indicates the number of water molecules associated with the compound. This substance is characterized by its crystalline structure, which can vary depending on the degree of hydration. Gadolinium(III) bromide hydrate is known for its paramagnetic properties, making it useful in various applications, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and as a contrast agent due to gadolinium's ability to enhance image quality. The compound is typically white to off-white in appearance and is soluble in water, which facilitates its use in aqueous solutions. It is important to handle this compound with care, as gadolinium and its compounds can pose health risks if ingested or improperly managed. Additionally, the compound's hygroscopic nature means it can absorb moisture from the air, which can affect its stability and purity.
