Sodium nitrate

Description:
Sodium nitrate, with the chemical formula NaNO3 and CAS number 7631-99-4, is an inorganic compound that appears as a white, crystalline solid. It is highly soluble in water, making it an effective source of nitrate ions in various applications. Sodium nitrate is hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air, which can affect its storage and handling. This compound is primarily used as a fertilizer in agriculture due to its high nitrogen content, promoting plant growth. Additionally, it serves as a preservative in food processing, particularly in cured meats, where it helps inhibit bacterial growth and maintain color. Sodium nitrate is also utilized in the production of glass and explosives. It has a relatively high melting point and can decompose at elevated temperatures, releasing nitrogen oxides. While generally considered safe in controlled amounts, excessive exposure or ingestion can lead to health concerns, including methemoglobinemia. Proper safety measures should be observed when handling this compound in industrial or laboratory settings.
