What is Ammonium iodide?
Chemical properties
white to light yellow crystalline powder
The Uses of Ammonium iodide
White crystals made by the action of ammonium hydroxide on hydroiodic acid followed by crystallization. Soluble in water and alcohol, ammonium iodide was used as a halide in collodion formulas, particularly in situations where it was needed for use immediately. Ammonium iodide decomposes quickly when mixed with plain collodion, releasing iodine.
The Uses of Ammonium iodide
It is used in photographic chemicals and some medications. It is a catalyst for dethioacetalization reaction.
The Uses of Ammonium iodide
In photographic chemicals.
What are the applications of Application
Ammonium iodide is an iodide salt used as a reagent and expectorant
Definition
ChEBI: The iodide salt of ammonia.
General Description
Odorless white solid. Sinks and mixes with water.
Air & Water Reactions
Water soluble.
Reactivity Profile
Ammonium iodide is light sensitive, becomes yellow or brown on exposure to air and light because of liberation of Iodine [Merck 11th ed. 1989]. Bromine trifluoride reacts explosively with the following ammonium bromide, ammonium chloride, Ammonium iodide [Mellor 2 Supp. 1:165 1956].
Health Hazard
Inhalation causes irritation of nose and throat. Contact with eyes causes irritation.
Flammability and Explosibility
Not classified
Purification Methods
The iodide crystallises from EtOH on addition of ethyl iodide, and is very hygroscopic. Store it in the dark. Its solubility is 177g in 100g of H2O at 25o. [Schmeisser in Handbook of Preparative Inorganic Chem (Ed. Brauer) Academic Press Vol I p 289-290 1963.]
