'''Americium(III) chloride''' or '''americium trichloride''' is the [[chemical compound]] composed of [[americium]] and [[chlorine]] with the [[chemical formula|formula]] AmCl<sub>3</sub>. This salt forms pink [[Hexagonal crystal system|hexagonal]] crystals. |

In the solid state each americium atom has nine chlorine atoms as near neighbours, at approximately the same distance, in a tricapped trigonal prismatic configuration.<ref>L. B. Asprey, T. K.

An americium(III) chloride [[electrorefining]] method has been investigated to separate mixtures of [[actinides]], since the [[Gibbs Energy#Standard change of formation|standard Gibbs free energy of formation]] of americium(III) chloride is much different than the rest of the actinide chlorides.<ref name="pyro"> |
