Barium nitrate is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula Ba(NO 3) 2. It, like most barium salts, is colorless, toxic, and water-soluble. It burns with a green flame and is an oxidizer; the compound is commonly used in pyrotechnics. [4]
The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.
A common nitrate test, known as the brown ring test [2] can be performed by adding iron(II) sulfate to a solution of a nitrate, then slowly adding concentrated sulfuric acid such that the acid forms a layer below the aqueous solution. A brown ring will form at the junction of the two layers, indicating the presence of the nitrate ion. [3]
Barium oxide, also known as baria, is a white hygroscopic non-flammable compound with the formula BaO. It has a cubic structure and is used in cathode-ray tubes, crown glass, and catalysts. It is harmful to human skin and if swallowed in large quantity causes irritation. Excessive quantities of barium oxide may lead to death.
Manganese(II) nitrate refers to the inorganic compounds with formula Mn(NO 3) 2 ·(H 2 O) n.These compounds are nitrate salts containing varying amounts of water. A common derivative is the tetrahydrate, Mn(NO 3) 2 ·4H 2 O, but mono- and hexahydrates are also known as well as the anhydrous compound.
The standard Gibbs free energy of formation (G f °) of a compound is the change of Gibbs free energy that accompanies the formation of 1 mole of a substance in its standard state from its constituent elements in their standard states (the most stable form of the element at 1 bar of pressure and the specified temperature, usually 298.15 K or 25 °C).
Barium nitrite is a chemical compound, the nitrous acid salt of barium. It has the chemical formula Ba(NO 2) 2. It is a water-soluble yellow powder. It is used to prepare other metal nitrites, such as lithium nitrite.
Radium nitrate is a radioactive salt with the formula Ra(NO 3) 2. It is a white solid, but old samples appear yellowish-grey. Although radium chloride and radium bromide are less soluble than the corresponding barium salts, radium nitrate is more soluble than barium nitrate. [1] [2] It decomposes at 280 °C to radium oxide.
