Barium chloride, dihydrate

Description:
Barium chloride dihydrate is an inorganic compound with the formula BaCl₂·2H₂O. It appears as a white crystalline solid and is highly soluble in water, forming a clear solution. This compound is characterized by its hygroscopic nature, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air. Barium chloride dihydrate is primarily used in various applications, including as a reagent in chemical analysis, in the preparation of other barium compounds, and in the manufacturing of certain types of glass and ceramics. It is also utilized in the laboratory for the precipitation of sulfate ions. The compound is toxic and poses health risks if ingested or inhaled, as barium ions can interfere with muscle and nerve function. Therefore, appropriate safety measures should be taken when handling it. In terms of its thermal properties, upon heating, barium chloride dihydrate loses water and converts to anhydrous barium chloride. Overall, it is an important compound in both industrial and laboratory settings, but caution is necessary due to its toxicity.
