Physical properties
Red violet crystal; insoluble in water; decomposes in hot water; soluble in dilute acids and ammonia.
Uses
The cobalt carbonate basic salt is the commercially-used cobalt carbonate. It is used primarily for manufacturing cobalt pigments. It also is used to prepare cobalt(II) oxide and other cobalt salts.
Preparation
