Preparation of Cerium Acetate Hydrate

Dissolve an appropriate amount of cerium oxide in a 50% acetic acid solution and heat using a steam bath. Typically, the cerium oxide dissolves completely. If a small amount of oxide residue remains at the bottom of the container, filter the solution.

Transfer the clear solution to a 75°C water bath to evaporate most of the solvent. Upon cooling, crystals will form. Collect the crystals via filtration and place them in a vacuum desiccator containing granular sodium hydroxide and magnesium perchlorate. Dry under vacuum to obtain hydrated cerium acetate.
