Iridium(II) chloride

Iridium(II) chloride is an inorganic chemical compound of iridium metal and chlorine with the chemical formula IrCl2. This is a metal salt of iridium and hydrochloric acid.

Iridium dichloride forms shiny dark-green crystals that are practically insoluble in water. Poorly soluble in acids and alkali. When heated to 773 °C, IrCl2 decomposes without melting.

The standard Gibbs energy of the formation of ΔG (298 K, kJ/mol) is -139.7.

When heated to 773 °C decomposes according to the equation:

At temperatures above 798 °C, complete decomposition of the substance occurs:
