Informations sur le produit

• Nom: Mercury(I) chloride
• Marque: Biosynth
• Description: Mercury chloride is a compound that consists of mercury and chlorine. It is used as an electrode in mercury-in-glass thermometers, which are used to measure temperature. Mercury chloride has also been used to detect the presence of mercurous ions in water. In addition, it is used as a reagent for qualitative determination of hydrogen peroxide and sulfur dioxide. Mercury chloride can be prepared by reacting sodium carbonate with mercurous nitrate or mercurous oxide at high temperatures. The reaction solution must be heated for about an hour to drive off the water vapor and produce the solid product.Mercury(I) chloride has been shown to have high resistance to oxidation and reduction reactions, making it a useful model system for studying redox potentials.The detection sensitivity of mercury(I) chloride is very low, but this can be increased by using t84 cells as a model system. This compound reacts with water molecules in the air, so sample preparation should include drying under vacuum or heating on
