| | MERCUROUS SULFATE Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | White, pale yellow or beige powder | | Uses | For making electric batteries; with zinc sulfate in the standard Clark cell and with cadmium sulfate in the standard Weston cell. | | General Description | White to yellow crystalline powder. Soluble in hot sulfuric acid, dilute nitric acid. Highly toxic. | | Air & Water Reactions | Insoluble in water. | | Reactivity Profile | MERCUROUS SULFATE is incompatible with the following: Acetylene, ammonia, chlorine dioxide, azides, calcium (amalgam formation), sodium carbide, lithium, rubidium, copper . | | Hazard | Highly toxic. | | Purification Methods | The white-yellow powder is recrystallised from dilute H2SO4., dried in a vacuum under N2, and stored in the dark. Its solubility in H2O is 0.6% at 25o. It is hydrolysed by excessive washing with H2O to form the greenish-yellow basic salt Hg2SO4.Hg2O.H2O. |
