Antimonate

Antimonate

The antimonate ion is Sb(OH)6−, where Sb is antimony and (OH) is the hydroxyl group.

An antimonate (compound) refers to a compound that contains the antimonate ion.

See for a list. Antimonate ions occur in some minerals ("see ").

In acid conditions this forms antimony pentoxide, Sb2O5; in other conditions we have the antimonate ion, Sb(OH)6−.

Like its horizontal neighbor in the periodic table, tellurium, and unlike other elements in the same group, antimony is commonly hexacoordinate, for example in the unit Sb(OH)6−; tetracoordinate units are not common.
