Sodium ferrocyanide is the sodium salt of the coordination compound of formula [Fe(CN) 6] 4−. In its hydrous form, Na 4 Fe(CN) 6 · H 2 O (sodium ferrocyanide decahydrate), it is sometimes known as yellow prussiate of soda. It is a yellow crystalline solid that is soluble in water and insoluble in alcohol. The yellow color is the color of ...
Potassium hexacyanidoferrate(II) finds many niche applications in industry. It and the related sodium salt are widely used as anticaking agents for both road salt and table salt. The potassium and sodium hexacyanidoferrates(II) are also used in the purification of tin and the separation of copper from molybdenum ores.
Prussian white, also known as Berlin white or Everett's salt, is the sodium end-member of the totally reduced form of the Prussian blue in which all iron is present as Fe(II). It is a sodium hexacyanoferrate of Fe(II) of formula Na 2 Fe[Fe(CN) 6]. [29] Its molecular weight value is 314 g/mol. [29]
Ammonium hexacyanoferrate(II) is an inorganic chemical compound with the chemical formula (NH 4) 4 [Fe(CN) 6]. [1] [2] Synthesis.
Ferroxyl indicator, or rust indicator, is a solution containing potassium hexacyanoferrate(III), phenolphthalein and sodium chloride. It turns blue in the presence of Fe 2+ ions, and pink in the presence of hydroxide (OH −) ions. It can be used to detect metal oxidation, and is often used to detect rusting in various situations.
Ferrocyanide is the name of the anion [Fe() 6] 4−.Salts of this coordination complex give yellow solutions. It is usually available as the salt potassium ferrocyanide, which has the formula K 4 Fe(CN) 6.
Prussian blue, also known as potassium ferric hexacyanoferrate, is used as a medication to treat thallium poisoning or radioactive caesium poisoning. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] For thallium it may be used in addition to gastric lavage , activated charcoal , forced diuresis , and hemodialysis .
It is also called hexacyanoferrate(III) and in rare, but systematic nomenclature, hexacyanidoferrate(III). The most common salt of this anion is potassium ferricyanide , a red crystalline material that is used as an oxidant in organic chemistry .
