CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
Physical Description | Mercuric subsulfate, [solid] appears as a lemon-yellow powder or bright yellow scaly material. Very slightly soluble in water and denser than water. Hence sinks in water. Toxic by inhalation and by ingestion. |
---|---|
Color/Form | Lemon-yellow powder |
Odor | Odorless |
Solubility | SOLUBILITY IN WATER @ 16 °C: 0.003 G/100 CC; SLIGHTLY SOL IN HOT WATER; INSOL IN ALCOHOL |
Density | 6.44 |
Vapor Density | 25.2 (Air= 1) |
Other Experimental Properties | Proved to be mercury oxonium sulfate in x-ray studies of its structure. Polymeric oxonium cations (Hg3O2)x form 2-dimensional infinite layers. The sulfate ions lie inside loops of wide-meshed cation lattice. |
