Barium Hydroxide 8 hydrate
Barium hydroxide, with the chemical formula Ba(OH)2\text{Ba(OH)}_2Ba(OH)2, is an inorganic compound that is used in various applications. Here’s a detailed overview:
Properties
- Appearance: White crystalline solid.
- Solubility: Moderately soluble in water, forming a strongly alkaline solution.
- Molecular Weight: 171.34 g/mol.
- Density: Approximately 2.18 g/cm³.
- Melting Point: 78 °C (anhydrous form); decomposes in water to form barium oxide and water.
Chemical Behavior
- Basicity: Barium hydroxide is a strong base and dissociates completely in water to form barium ions (Ba2+\text{Ba}^{2+}Ba2+) and hydroxide ions (OH−\text{OH}^-OH−).
- Reaction with Acids: Reacts with acids to form barium salts and water. For example: Ba(OH)2+2HCl→BaCl2+2H2O\text{Ba(OH)}_2 + 2\text{HCl} \rightarrow \text{BaCl}_2 + 2\text{H}_2\text{O}Ba(OH)2+2HCl→BaCl2+2H2O
- Hydrate Forms: Often found as the octahydrate (Ba(OH)2⋅8H2O\text{Ba(OH)}_2 \cdot 8\text{H}_2\text{O}Ba(OH)2⋅8H2O).
