Cobalt(II) fluoride a fluoride ion-selective electrode or ion chromatography. CoF is a weak Lewis acid. Cobalt(II) complexes are usually octahedral or tetrahedral. As a 19-electron species it is a good reducing agent, fairly oxidizable into an 18-electron compound. Cobalt(II) fluoride can be reduced by hydrogen at a 300 °C. Cobalt(II) fluoride Cobalt(II) fluoride is a chemical compound with the formula (CoF). It is a pink crystalline solid compound which is antiferromagnetic at low temperatures (T=37.7 K) The formula is given for both the red tetragonal crystal, (CoF), and the tetrahydrate red orthogonal crystal, (CoF·4HO). CoF is used in oxygen-sensitive fields, namely metal
Cobalt sulfide Cobalt sulfide Cobalt sulfide is the name for chemical compounds with a formula CoS. Well-characterized species include minerals with the formula CoS, CoS, CoS, and CoS. In general, the sulfides of cobalt are black, semiconducting, insoluble in water, and nonstoichiometric. Cobalt sulfides occur widely as minerals, comprising major sources of all cobalt compounds. Binary cobalt sulfide minerals include the cattierite (CoS) and linnaeite (CoS). CoS (see image in table) is isostructural with iron pyrite, featuring disulfide groups, i.e. CoS. Linnaeite, also rare, adopts the spinel motif. The CoS compound is known as a very rare cobaltpentlandite (the Co analogue of
