MERCURIC BROMIDE Usage And Synthesis
Chemical Propertieswhite crystalline powder
General DescriptionWhite rhombic crystals. Sensitive to light. Slightly soluble in water and denser than water. Severely toxic by inhalation and ingestion.
Air & Water ReactionsSlightly soluble in water.
Reactivity ProfileMERCURIC BROMIDE is incompatible with acetylene, ammonia, chlorine dioxide, azides, calcium (amalgam formation), sodium carbide, lithium, rubidium, copper . Reacts with sodium azide to give mercury(II) azide, which is sensitive to shock, friction, and heat. Mixing with hydrazine salts in basic solution produced a heat or shock sensitive yellow precipitate [Annalen, 1899, 305, 191]. Reacts violently with chlorine trifluoride *with ignition often occurring.
Health HazardTOXIC; inhalation, ingestion or skin contact with material may cause severe injury or death. Contact with molten substance may cause severe burns to skin and eyes. Avoid any skin contact. Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution.
Fire HazardNon-combustible, substance itself does not burn but may decompose upon heating to produce corrosive and/or toxic fumes. Some are oxidizers and may ignite combustibles (wood, paper, oil, clothing, etc.). Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas. Containers may explode when heated.
