Zirconium yog cov khoom siv hlauuas yog siv dav hauv ntau yam kev lag luam thiab kev kho mob. Cov khoom no muaj ntau lub xeev valence nyob ntawm cov tshuaj tiv thaiv tshwj xeeb uas nws koom nrog. Feem ntau, feem ntau oxidation xeev ntawm zirconium yog +4 thiab +3, uas yog ruaj khov thiab tseem ceeb configurations.
Hauv +4 oxidation xeev, zirconium ua raws li cation nrog tus nqi ntawm 4+. Lub xeev valence no ruaj khov heev thiab feem ntau pom muaj nyob rau hauv zirconium-muaj cov tebchaw, xws li zirconia (ZrO2), zirconium oxychloride (ZrOCl2), thiab zirconium carbide (ZrC). Zirconium nyob rau hauv +4 oxidation lub xeev yog tus cwj pwm los ntawm nws muaj zog reactivity nrog oxygen thiab lwm yam ntsiab lus, ua rau nws muaj txiaj ntsig catalyst nyob rau hauv ntau yam tshuaj.
Lub +3 oxidation lub xeev ntawm zirconium tsis tshua muaj tab sis tseem tseem ceeb hauv qee cov tebchaw. Nyob rau hauv lub xeev valence no, zirconium muaj cationic nqi ntawm 3+ thiab cov ntaub ntawv ruaj khov xws li zirconocene dichloride (ZrCp2Cl2), uas yog ib tug dav siv organometallic reagent hauv organic synthesis. Tsis tas li ntawd, zirconium nyob rau hauv +3 oxidation xeev paub tias muaj qis reactivity piv rau nws cov +4 counterpart, ua rau nws muaj txiaj ntsig zoo hauv qee qhov kev siv semiconductor.
Hauv kev xaus, zirconium yog ntau yam khoom siv uas nthuav tawm ntau lub xeev valence nyob ntawm cov tshuaj tiv thaiv tshwj xeeb uas nws dhau mus. Feem ntau cov xeev valence ntawm zirconium yog +4 thiab +3, uas yog ob qho tib si muaj txiaj ntsig zoo hauv kev lag luam sib txawv thiab kev siv txuj ci. Zuag qhia tag nrho, zirconium yog ib qho tseem ceeb uas ua lub luag haujlwm tseem ceeb hauv ntau qhov kev txhim kho thev naus laus zis thiab kev tshawb pom kev tshawb fawb.
