CAS 506-87-6

Ammonium carbonate

Description:

Ammonium carbonate, with the CAS number 506-87-6, is an inorganic compound that appears as a white crystalline solid or powder. It is composed of ammonium ions (NH4+) and carbonate ions (CO3^2-). This compound is highly soluble in water, and its solution is mildly alkaline. Ammonium carbonate is known for its ability to decompose upon heating, releasing ammonia gas and carbon dioxide, which makes it useful in various applications, including as a leavening agent in baking and as a source of ammonia in chemical synthesis. It has a characteristic odor reminiscent of ammonia, which can be quite pungent. In addition to its culinary uses, ammonium carbonate is also employed in the production of certain fertilizers and as a buffering agent in various chemical processes. Safety considerations include its potential to irritate the respiratory system and skin upon exposure, necessitating proper handling and storage practices. Overall, ammonium carbonate is a versatile compound with significant applications in both food and industrial sectors.

Ammonium carbonate is an inorganic salt that consists of ammonium ion and carbonate ion. It is a white crystalline solid with a molecular weight of about 166.4 g/mol. Ammonium carbonate is soluble in water, alcohol, acetone, and other organic solvents. It has been used as a buffer solution for pH adjustment and as a source of ammonium ions in analytical chemistry. Ammonium carbonate can be formed by the reaction of sodium carbonate with ammonia gas or liquid ammonia, or the reaction of sodium bicarbonate with ammonia gas or liquid ammonia. The thermal expansion coefficient of ammonium carbonate is higher than those of sodium salts such as sodium chloride and potassium chloride. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements have shown that the reactivity between ammonium carbonate and plasma mass spectrometry is high due to its high values on the electric spectrum graph at low frequencies (1 kHz).
