FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of ferric nitrate LR?
Ferric nitrate LR has a shelf life of 2-3 years when stored in a cool, dry place in its original, tightly sealed container. Exposure to moisture or air can reduce its effectiveness over time.
2. Is ferric nitrate LR compatible with glassware?
Yes, ferric nitrate LR is compatible with standard borosilicate glassware. However, prolonged contact with highly concentrated solutions may cause slight etching, so rinsing equipment after use is recommended.
3. Are there alternatives to ferric nitrate for similar applications?
Ferric chloride and ferric sulfate can sometimes be used as alternatives, but they may behave differently in reactions. Ferric nitrate is preferred for specific analytical tests due to its distinct colorimetric properties.
4. How should ferric nitrate LR be stored?
Store ferric nitrate LR in a tightly closed container, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it in a well-ventilated area, separated from incompatible substances like strong bases or reducing agents.
5. What is the source of ferric nitrate LR?
Ferric nitrate LR is synthesized through the reaction of iron with nitric acid, followed by crystallization and purification to achieve laboratory reagent grade quality.
