Palladium Hydroxide FAQs

Q1: What is Palladium Hydroxide?

Palladium hydroxide is an inorganic compound made of palladium (Pd) and hydroxide ions (OH). It typically appears as a dark brown to black solid and is a key intermediate in the production of palladium catalysts.

Q2: How is Palladium Hydroxide Made?

It is commonly synthesized by reacting palladium salts, such as palladium chloride (PdCl₂), with an alkali hydroxide like sodium hydroxide (NaOH) or potassium hydroxide (KOH). The reaction forms palladium hydroxide as a precipitate:

PdCl2​+2NaOH→Pd(OH)2​+2NaCl

Q3: What is the Difference Between Palladium Hydroxide and Palladium Metal?

Palladium hydroxide is a precursor compound, while palladium metal is the pure metallic form of the element. Palladium hydroxide can be reduced to palladium metal, typically by using hydrogen gas or chemical reducing agents.
