Sodium acetate trihydrate

Description:
Sodium acetate trihydrate, with the chemical formula C2H6NaO3·3H2O and CAS number 6131-90-4, is a crystalline solid that appears as white or colorless granules or powder. It is the sodium salt of acetic acid and is highly soluble in water, making it useful in various applications. The trihydrate form indicates that each formula unit is associated with three water molecules, contributing to its stability and solubility. Sodium acetate trihydrate is commonly used in biochemical applications, such as buffer solutions in molecular biology, and as a food preservative. It has a mildly salty taste and can act as a source of sodium ions in various chemical reactions. Additionally, it is utilized in heating pads and as a de-icing agent due to its ability to release heat upon crystallization. The substance is generally considered safe for use in food and laboratory settings, although standard safety precautions should be observed to avoid inhalation or prolonged skin contact.
