  2. Barium sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barium_sulfate

    Barium sulfate (or sulphate) is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula Ba SO 4. It is a white crystalline solid that is odorless and insoluble in water. It occurs in nature as the mineral barite, which is the main commercial source of barium and materials prepared from it. Its opaque white appearance and its high density are exploited ...

  3. Solubility chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility_chart

    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.

  4. Solubility table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility_table

    The tables below provides information on the variation of solubility of different substances (mostly inorganic compounds) in water with temperature, at one atmosphere pressure.

  5. Baryte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baryte

    Historically, baryte was used for the production of barium hydroxide for sugar refining, and as a white pigment for textiles, paper, and paint. [3] Although baryte contains the toxic alkaline earth metal barium, it is not detrimental for human health, animals, plants and the environment because barium sulfate is extremely insoluble in water.

  6. Sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfate

    Radium sulfate is the most insoluble sulfate known. The barium derivative is useful in the gravimetric analysis of sulfate: if one adds a solution of most barium salts, for instance barium chloride, to a solution containing sulfate ions, barium sulfate will precipitate out of solution as a whitish powder. This is a common laboratory test to ...

  7. Solubility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility

    The solubility of a specific solute in a specific solvent is generally expressed as the concentration of a saturated solution of the two. [1] Any of the several ways of expressing concentration of solutions can be used, such as the mass, volume, or amount in moles of the solute for a specific mass, volume, or mole amount of the solvent or of the solution.

  8. Barium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barium

    Barium compounds are added to fireworks to impart a green color. Barium sulfate is used as an insoluble additive to oil well drilling fluid. In a purer form it is used as X-ray radiocontrast agents for imaging the human gastrointestinal tract. Water-soluble barium compounds are poisonous and have been used as rodenticides.

  9. Oilfield scale inhibition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oilfield_scale_inhibition

    Due to its relatively high solubility in water, Calcium sulfate is the easiest sulfate scale to remove chemically as compared to strontium and barium sulfate. [2] Scale crystals are initially dispersed in production systems until accumulation of stable crystals of insoluble sulfates and scale growth occur at nucleation centers. [8]
