Sodium oxalate (Na₂C₂O₄), also known as disodium oxalate, is a white, crystalline solid with a variety of applications, including some specific uses in laboratories. Here’s a breakdown of its key properties, applications, and safety considerations:
Properties:
- Appearance: White crystalline solid
- Odor: Odorless
- Solubility: Low solubility in water, but increases with temperature
- Melting point: Decomposes above 290 °C (554 °F)
Description
Uses of Sodium Oxalate
- Standardizing Potassium Permanganate Solutions (Titration):
- In titrimetric analysis, a technique to determine the concentration of an unknown solution, sodium oxalate acts as a primary standard. This means it has a precisely known and highly reliable purity.
- Researchers use sodium oxalate solutions with a known concentration to standardize (determine the exact concentration) of potassium permanganate (KMnO₄) solutions. Potassium permanganate is a strong oxidizing agent used in many titrations.
- By accurately knowing the concentration of the sodium oxalate solution, researchers can then calculate the concentration of the potassium permanganate solution they are using for titrations. This ensures accurate measurements in subsequent experiments.
- Precipitation Reactions for Metal Ion Separation and Identification:
- Sodium oxalate can be a valuable tool in qualitative analysis experiments, which aim to identify the components present in an unknown solution.
- When sodium oxalate solution is added to a solution containing specific metal ions, it can trigger the formation of insoluble oxalate salts as precipitates (solid particles formed from a solution).
- Since different metal ions form oxalate salts with varying colors and solubilities, this precipitation reaction helps researchers separate and identify the specific metal ions present in the unknown solution based on the observed precipitate characteristics.

Ammonia Solution 2.5litres
An ammonia solution is a solution of ammonia (NH3) gas dissolved in water. It is a clear, colorless liquid with a pungent odor and a basic pH. The concentration of ammonia in the solution can vary, and is typically expressed in terms of percent by weight or by volume.
Ammonia solutions are commonly used in a variety of applications, including cleaning agents, fertilizers, and as a precursor to other chemicals. They are also used in industrial processes such as refrigeration, gas purification, and water treatment. Ammonia solutions can be dangerous if not handled properly, as they are highly corrosive and can release toxic fumes if mixed with certain chemicals
Ammonium Chloride 500gm
Ammonium chloride is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula NH4Cl. It is a white crystalline salt that is highly soluble in water and has a salty taste. Ammonium chloride is often used in various industrial and laboratory applications, including as a flux in soldering, as a nitrogen source in fertilizers, and as a component in dry cell batteries. It can also be used in medicine as an expectorant to help thin and loosen mucus in the respiratory system
Anhydrous Aluminum Chloride
Anhydrous aluminum chloride, often represented as AlCl3, is a chemical compound composed of aluminum and chlorine. "Anhydrous" means it lacks water molecules in its structure. It's a white or pale yellow solid that is highly hygroscopic, meaning it readily absorbs moisture from the air. This property makes handling it a bit tricky since it can form a solution with water vapor in the air, turning into a fuming liquid.
