Product Overview
Lead Nitrate LR is a high-purity laboratory reagent designed for precision in chemical applications. This crystalline powder, with a minimum assay of 99%, ensures accurate and reproducible results in qualitative analysis, precipitation reactions, and synthesis processes. Its excellent solubility in water (56.5 g/100 mL at 20°C) makes it a versatile choice for preparing standard solutions and conducting gravimetric analyses. The reagent is carefully processed to minimize impurities, reducing interference in sensitive tests. Its stable nature under controlled storage conditions (cool, dry environment) ensures long shelf life without degradation. The LR grade certification guarantees compliance with laboratory standards, making it suitable for educational, research, and industrial testing environments. When handling, standard laboratory safety protocols should be followed due to its toxic and oxidizing properties. This product is packaged in airtight containers to prevent moisture absorption and contamination, maintaining its integrity until use.
FAQs
1. What is the solubility of Lead Nitrate LR in different solvents?
Lead Nitrate LR is highly soluble in water (56.5 g/100 mL at 20°C) and moderately soluble in ethanol. It is insoluble in concentrated nitric acid.
2. Can this be used for preparing lead-based pigments?
While chemically suitable, Lead Nitrate LR is primarily intended for laboratory applications. For pigment preparation, industrial-grade alternatives may be more cost-effective.
3. What precautions should be taken during storage?
Store in a tightly sealed container away from heat, moisture, and incompatible substances like organic materials or reducing agents. Keep in a dedicated poison cabinet.
4. Is this product compatible with glassware?
Yes, Lead Nitrate LR can be safely used with standard borosilicate glassware. Avoid prolonged contact with metals to prevent corrosion.
5. How does the LR grade differ from AR grade in this chemical?
LR grade (Laboratory Reagent) has slightly lower purity (99%) compared to AR grade (Analytical Reagent, 99.5%+). LR is suitable for most educational and routine lab applications.
