Description:
Phosphoric acid, trisodium salt, hydrate (2:1), commonly known as trisodium phosphate dodecahydrate, is an inorganic compound with the formula Na3PO4·12H2O. It appears as a white crystalline solid and is highly soluble in water, forming an alkaline solution. This compound is characterized by its ability to act as a buffering agent, helping to maintain pH levels in various applications. It is commonly used in food processing, cleaning agents, and as a water softener due to its ability to sequester calcium and magnesium ions. Additionally, trisodium phosphate is utilized in the manufacture of ceramics and glass, as well as in some agricultural applications as a fertilizer. The hydrate form indicates that it contains water molecules within its crystal structure, which can influence its physical properties and stability. Safety considerations include potential irritation to skin and eyes upon contact, and it should be handled with appropriate precautions in laboratory and industrial settings.
