People,

 

Have some Iridium chloride, and it has absorbed moisture, and now I can not determine the % of Ir as it is a blob now. Anyone know of a way to turn it into say, an oxide, weigh it, then redisolve it once the Ir content is known?

 

Thanks, people. 

Why you dont dissolved it in HCl and then evaporate and get the Iridiumchloride back.

Thanks, Chen, that is a very interesting idea. So should I just add conc HCl, and then place it in a dessicator? How could I be sure it will dry out as the tri hydrate? If so, this is a great plan. Thanks in advace for your reply/advice.
