Beschreibung

Mercury(II) sulfate is a chemical compound with the molecular formula HgSO4. It is a salt of mercury and sulfuric acid that is used in analytical chemistry as a reagent to detect fatty acids. Mercury(II) sulfate forms an acidic solution when mixed with water, so it can be used to precipitate metals such as potassium dichromate or sodium carbonate. This compound also has been used in the treatment of autoimmune diseases and cervical cancer. Mercury(II) sulfate reacts with phosphotungstic acid to form mercuric phosphotungstate, which can be detected by x-ray crystallography if it is present in the crystal lattice. Mercury(II) sulfate also reacts with hydroxyl groups to form mercuric oxychloride, which can be detected by hydrochloric acid.
