Tin dioxide
Tin dioxide (SnO₂), also called stannic oxide, is an inorganic compound of tin and oxygen that occurs naturally as cassiterite, the principal ore of tin.
Tin(IV) oxide
Tin(IV) oxide (SnO₂), also called tin dioxide or stannic oxide, is a white crystalline oxide of tin that occurs as the mineral cassiterite, the world's predominant ore of tin.
Trinitramide
Trinitramide (TNA), with the formula N(NO₂)₃, is a highly energetic nitrogen oxide first observed experimentally in 2010, the largest nitrogen oxide detected to date, studied as a rocket propellant oxidizer.
Triuranium octoxide
Triuranium octoxide (U₃O₈) is a mixed-valence oxide of uranium, the standard traded form of uranium concentrate known as yellowcake, and the feed material for converting uranium into nuclear reactor fuel.
Tungsten trioxide
Tungsten trioxide (WO₃) is an n-type semiconductor oxide of tungsten, best known as the standard electrochromic material in smart windows and the intermediate from which tungsten metal is made.
Uranium trioxide
Uranium trioxide (UO₃) is the highest oxide of uranium, in which uranium is in the +6 oxidation state, and serves as a high-purity intermediate in uranium refining.
Uranyl peroxide
Uranyl peroxide, also known as uranium peroxide, is a uranium compound known as the rare minerals studtite and metastudtite, the only minerals containing peroxide, and as a yellowcake product.
Vanadium dioxide
Vanadium dioxide is a transition metal oxide that undergoes a reversible metal-to-insulator transition at about 68 °C, changing its electrical and optical properties, most prominently in thermochromic smart windows.
Vanadium pentoxide
Vanadium pentoxide (V₂O₅) is the most stable oxide of vanadium, used industrially as an oxidation catalyst, as the feedstock for vanadium metal and ferrovanadium, and in battery electrodes.
Water
Water (H₂O) is a transparent, odorless liquid made of one oxygen atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms, the major constituent of Earth's oceans and of living organisms.
Water of crystallization
Water of crystallization, also known as water of hydration, is water incorporated into a compound's crystal lattice in stoichiometric amounts; a compound containing it is a hydrate.
Xenon dioxide
Xenon dioxide (XeO₂) is a yellow solid xenon oxide first synthesized in 2011, notable for its polymeric structure and possible role in xenon's disappearance from Earth's atmosphere.
Xenon oxides
Xenon oxides are compounds of the noble gas xenon and oxygen, including XeO₃ and XeO₄; at ambient pressure they are unstable, and some are explosive.
Yttrium oxide
Yttrium oxide, also called yttria, is a white, air-stable rare-earth oxide used in ceramics, phosphors, and lasers. Johan Gadolin isolated it in 1794 from minerals mined at Ytterby, Sweden.
Zinc peroxide
Zinc peroxide (ZnO2, also known as zinc bioxide or zinc dioxide) is a white inorganic peroxide of zinc, a strong oxidizing agent used as an antiseptic and photocatalyst that decomposes to zinc oxide on heating.
