Ammonium chloride

Description:

Ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) is an inorganic compound characterized by its white crystalline appearance and high solubility in water. It is a salt formed from the reaction of ammonia and hydrochloric acid. Ammonium chloride has a slightly salty taste and is hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air. It is commonly used in various applications, including as a food additive, in fertilizers, and in the production of batteries and pharmaceuticals. The compound exhibits a melting point around 340°C and decomposes upon heating, releasing ammonia gas. In solution, it dissociates into ammonium (NH4+) and chloride (Cl-) ions, contributing to its role as an electrolyte. Ammonium chloride is also utilized in the textile and dyeing industries, as well as in metalwork for fluxing. While generally considered safe in moderate amounts, exposure to high concentrations can lead to respiratory irritation. Overall, ammonium chloride is a versatile compound with significant industrial and laboratory applications.

Ammonium chloride

CAS: 12125-02-9

Ammonium chloride is a salt of ammonium and chloride. It is used in wastewater treatment as a coagulant, to remove suspended solids from the water. In addition, ammonium chloride has been shown to have potent antitumor activity and is used in chemotherapy treatments. Ammonium chloride can be toxic if ingested or inhaled and should not be handled without proper safety precautions. Ammonium chloride also has an effect on the bowel disease, slowing down the rate at which it progresses. It is produced when trimethyl reacts with blood or water vapor. The surface methodology was used to obtain thermodynamic data for ammonium chloride. This method can be applied to other compounds that are difficult to analyze by other methods.
