The lutetium hahdes (except the fluoride), together with the nitrates, perchlorates, and acetates, are soluble in water. The hydroxide oxide, carbonate, oxalate, and phosphate compotmds are insoluble. Lutetium compounds are all colorless in the solid state and in solution. Due to its closed electronic configuration (4f " ), lutetium has no absorption bands and does not emit radiation. For these reasons it does not have any magnetic or optical importance, see also Cerium Dysprosium Erbium Europium Gadolinium Holmium Lanthanum Neodymium Praseodymium Promethium Samarium Terbium Ytterbium. 

The commercially important samarium-containing minerals are treated with concentrated sulfuric acid or, in the case of monazite, with a solution of sodium hydroxide (73%) at approximately 40°C (104°E) and under pressure. The element is separated from the solutions via solvent extraction or ion exchange. Sm salts are weakly yellow and may exhibit ion emission. Sm ions show luminescence and are sometimes used to generate lasers. Samarium is used in the manufacture of headphones and tape drivers, see ALSO Cerium Dysprosium Erbium Europium Gadolinium Holmium Lanthanum Lutetium Neodymium Praseodymium Promethium Terbium Ytterbium. 

Lai -j Ce TbyP04 exhibit strong green emission radiation. Such kinds of compounds are called phosphors and are used to display color in television. Terbium is also used as an alloy material in compact discs, see also Cerium Dysprosium Erbium Europium Gadolinium Holmium Lanthanum Lutetium Neodymium Praseodymium Promethium Samarium Ytterbium.

Rare earth. One of a group of 15 chemically related elements lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, promethium, samarium, europium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, thulium, ytterbium, and lutetium. 

In another series of studies of the soluble lanthanide chlorides, rats were fed gadolinium, samarium, terbium, thulium, ytterbium, praseodymium, neodymium, lutetium, europium, dysprosium, holmium, and erbium chloride in their diet at doses of 0, 5, 50, and 500 mg kg day for 12 weeks. Only ytterbium chloride caused any significant effect, with the 500 mg kg dose causing gastric hemorrhages. The other lanthanides caused no adverse effects at the maximum 500 mg kg dose.
